A5: For the next hackathon, I’ve seen exciting #OpenSource integration by graduate students @HeinzCollege @CarnegieMellon to identify high-risk healthcare facilities using a hybrid machine learning model and SAS. #SASchat

[Manuel Figallo @ManuelFigallo]

A4: Each iteration of the analytics lifecycle will move a team towards more mature data science practices. #OpenSource technologies can be extended with #SASsoftware to adopt ModelOps capabilities as well as governed reports for effective decisions. #SASchat

[Manuel Figallo @ManuelFigallo]

A3: Through each iteration of the analytics lifecycle, more data and more integration with cloud services and #OpenSource is likely in order to address ever-changing requirements. Being cloud native means being able to scale up in a more agile way. #SASchat

[Manuel Figallo @ManuelFigallo]

A2: Agile is an important methodology to adopt in data science--it reinforces the notion that #OpenSource integration with SAS needs to be done in an incremental and iterative fashion. In other words, done in the spirit of continuous improvement. #SASchat

[Manuel Figallo @ManuelFigallo]

A1: The ability for a team to traverse the analytics lifecycle is key—from data, to discovery, and then deployment. Through this journey, it’s important to identify risks to make the project successful. Integrating SAS with #OpenSource makes it easier. #SASChat

In these days of anxiety, I wanted to find a way to continue to share some of the music that gives me comfort. The first of my #SongsOfComfort: Dvořák – "Going Home”

Stay safe.

Treat yourself to a couple of minutes of feeling good. These babies are wearing hearing aids, and for the first time they're hearing what is being said to them.

Spend #EarthDayatHome with us. On April 22, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of #EarthDay with @ClimateMusic. This free online program features music using @IPCC_CH data to help you "hear" the climate from 1880-2080.🎶🌐https://t.co/8wa6bBKmLG

My name is Manuel and I work with Federal and healthcare customers. I’m most interested in Medicare Part D #SASchat

[Manuel Figallo @ManuelFigallo]

I’m interested to hear from folks working with Medicare fraud. What can of specific use cases are you working on? #SASchat

[Manuel Figallo @ManuelFigallo]

With SAS, APIs and the cloud, customers can jump start their analytics journey. #Beinteroperable
No one said it better than the Administrator, @SeemaCMS:

5. There are some extremely talented people out there. Even better, they're great to hang out with. Thanks to my @SASsoftware colleagues, the Carnegie Mellon University students and faculty (@HeinzCollege) that I had the pleasure of seeing, and the new people I met!!

4. The pace of change made my head spin. If you’re uncomfortable with the way technology is moving, find a HIMSS e-mentor:

3. Seema Verma (@SeemaCMS), the administrator for Medicare, is leading the charge along with many other people towards #interoperability. Making systems interoperable will improve patient care and engagement and reduce costs
