13 Concluding Remarks

Health care leaders will need to consult widely and exercise a strong will to work collaboratively with their partners to use big data effectively to improve health care delivery. The promise of big data is enormous, however, the risks associated with the uncritical deployment and application of big data are not be ignored. Leaders must become proactive to put in place infrastructure, standards, and capacity to effectively harness the power of big data to benefit the health of citizens.

Bellazzi reminds us “The way forward with the big data opportunity will require properly applied engineering principles to design studies and applications, to avoid preconceptions or over-enthusiasms, to fully exploit the available technologies, and to improve data processing and data management regulations” [10]. Leaders will need to be very vigilant to ensure that their approaches and uses of big data are accurate and true. Nothing will erode the confidence of citizens more quickly than data that is false and untrustworthy.
