carelytics 0.1.3

A Python library for Healthcare Data Analytics and Revenue Cycle Management.

Carelytics – Healthcare Data Analytics Library

A modular Python package for healthcare data cleaning, validation, and revenue cycle insights.

---

Overview

Carelytics is a Python library designed to simplify data analytics and automation in the healthcare domain, especially focusing on Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) workflows.

It provides functions to:

• Validate and clean large healthcare datasets
• Analyze patient encounters, lab data, and vitals
• Standardize formats for interoperability (FHIR-ready)
• Support predictive modeling such as readmission and denial prediction

Built with Pandas, NumPy, and Scikit-learn, Carelytics empowers analysts, researchers, and developers to derive actionable insights from healthcare data quickly and efficiently.

⚙️ Core Functionalities

1. carelytics.utils.validator

Provides schema and datatype validation for healthcare datasets.

Example:

from carelytics.utils.validator import validate_columns, validate_datatypes

validate_columns(df, ["patient_id", "age", "diagnosis"])
validate_datatypes(df, {"age": "int64", "diagnosis": "object"})

Output:

all required columns validated.
Column data types validated successfully.

---

2. carelytics.utils.cleaner

Includes data cleaning utilities like missing value handling, standardization, and column renaming.

from carelytics.utils.cleaner import fill_missing

df = fill_missing(df, strategy="median")

---

3. carelytics.models.denial_prediction

Predicts claim denial probabilities based on payer data, CPT/ICD codes, and historical denials.

from carelytics.models.denial_prediction import predict_denials
pred = predict_denials(df)
print(pred.head())

---

4. carelytics.models.readmission

Predicts hospital readmission likelihood using patient demographics and vitals.

---

5. carelytics.claims

Analyzes RCM claim metrics such as:

• Average AR days
• Net collection rate
• Denial rates

---

6. carelytics.lab & carelytics.vitals

Helps in normalizing patient lab values and vitals for statistical analysis.

---

7. carelytics.utils.deid

Supports data anonymization to remove or mask PHI (Protected Health Information) before analysis.

---

Example Workflow

import pandas as pd
from carelytics.utils import validator, cleaner
from carelytics.models import denial_prediction

# Load your healthcare dataset
df = pd.read_csv("claims.csv")

# Validate structure
validator.validate_columns(df, ["claim_id", "payer", "amount", "denial_flag"])

# Clean and prepare
df = cleaner.fill_missing(df, "median")

# Run prediction
pred = denial_prediction.predict_denials(df)
print(pred.head())

---
