Abstract
The challenge of sustainable healthcare requires significant changes to the structure of healthcare delivery, with greater emphasis on prevention and pro-active, personalised care. This, in turn, relies for its effectiveness on detailed analysis of the evidence contained in large data bases. This paper describes a powerful and general analytical approach to derive insights from complex health and behavioural data, and to underpin evidence-based scenario analysis for commissioning of clinically efficient and cost effective health interventions.
