This survey study explores big data tool and technology usage, examines the gap between the supply and the demand for data scientists through Diffusion of Innovations theory, proposes engaging academics to accelerate knowledge diffusion, and recommends adoption of curriculum-building models. For this study, data were collected through a national survey of healthcare managers. Results provide practical data on big data tool and technology skills utilized in the workplace. This information is valuable for healthcare organizations, academics, and industry leaders who collaborate to implement the necessary infrastructure for content delivery and for experiential learning. It informs academics working to reengineer their curriculum to focus on big data analytics. The paper presents numerous resources that provide guidance for building knowledge.

Current International Classification of Diseases (ICD) coding systems include a set of nonspecific codes for malignancies of connective and soft tissue (ICD-9-CM code 171 and ICD-10-CM code C49). The goal of this study was to evaluate the use of these codes for health services research involving patients with a diagnosis of this rare malignancy.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Two databases were utilized to explore ICD coding for STS: claims data from Truven MarketScan and electronic medical records (EMRs) from Flatiron Health. Eligible patients from claims data were those with at least two ICD-9-CM codes of 171.x on two different days between July 1, 2004, and March 30, 2014. The treatment patterns of these cases were evaluated for consistency with known therapeutic approaches for STS. Eligible patients from the Flatiron EMR system were those who received olaratumab (a drug indicated only for use in patients diagnosed with STS) after its US Food and Drug Administration approval in October 2016 through the end of the data set (November 2017). ICD-10-CM codes were evaluated for this known STS cohort.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>In claims data, 4,159 patients were eligible for inclusion.

Development of the web-based Electronic Integrated ANC (e-iANC) system used the System Development Life Cycle method.
