Medicaid Optimization

More than 1.4 million Hoosiers are covered by Medicaid. In 2016, this population accrued more than 47 million claims. While the size of Indiana's Medicaid system is impressive in its own right, the amount of relevant data resulting from the Medicaid system is staggering.

Indiana Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA), in collaboration with MPH, released public datasets to unlock the value of this data and allow organizations to more effectively tackle healthcare challenges. These datasets can be accessed and downloaded via the Indiana Data Hub.

Agency Sponsors: FSSA

Gaining New Insight

FSSA operates six care divisions, including the Office of Medicaid Policy and Planning, and accumulates the service-related data about members, providers, and claims into an enterprise data warehouse.

Members (beneficiaries/recipients): This data includes age, gender, location, and race/ethnicity.

Providers: This data includes name and address, National Provider Identifier (NPI), specialties, and practice type.

Claims: This data includes prescriptions, cost, and diagnosis.
