Health plans that spend billions of dollars a year run on decisions drawn from data split across carriers, administrators and data warehouses. I help the people responsible for plans like these turn that into choices they can defend.

I think AI should do the assembly and checking so people can do the judging. I'm testing that on my own projects with public data, and I write about what holds up.
