This document discusses the concept of late binding in data warehousing and analytics. It defines late binding as binding data elements, rules, and vocabularies together as late as practical for analytic purposes. This allows for more flexibility and agility to address new use cases compared to early binding. The document also presents an eight level model of analytic adoption in healthcare and discusses how data governance and analytic complexity increase with each level of maturity. Late binding is presented as an important design principle to enable progression through the levels of analytic maturity.

Late Binding in Software Engineering
1980s: Object Oriented Programming
â Alan Kay Universities of Colorado & Utah, Xerox/PARC
â Small objects of code, reflecting the real world
â Compiled individually, linked at runtime, only as needed
â Major agility and adaptability to address new use cases
Steve Jobs
â NeXT computing
â Commercial, large-scale adoption of Kayâs concepts
â Late bindingâ or as late as practicalâ becomes the norm
â Maybe Jobsâ largest contribution to computer science

Atomic data must be âboundâ to business rules about that data and
to vocabularies related to that data in order to create information
Vocabulary binding in healthcare is pretty obvious
â Unique patient and provider identifiers
â Standard facility, department, and revenue center codes
â Standard definitions for gender, race, ethnicity
â ICD, CPT, SNOMED, LOINC, RxNorm, RADLEX, etc.
Examples of binding data to business rules
â Length of stay
â Patient relationship attribution to a provider
â Revenue (or expense) allocation and projections to a department
â Revenue (or expense) allocation and projections to a physician
â Data definitions of general disease states and patient registries
â Patient exclusion criteria from disease/population management
â Patient admission/discharge/transfer rules

HHS/HRSA HTN Definition
Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and
Treatment of High Blood Pressure in its Seventh Report (JNC VII 2003 )
⢠The classification of blood pressure, which is the average of two or more
readings each taken at two or more visits after initial screening for adults
aged 18 years or older, is as follows:
⢠Normalâsystolic blood pressure (SBP) is lower than 120 mm Hg; diastolic
blood pressure (DPB) is lower than 80 mm Hg
⢠Pre-hypertensionâSBP is 120 to139 mm Hg; DBP is 80 to 99 mm Hg
⢠Stage 1âSBP is 140 to159 mm Hg; DBP is 90 to 99 mm Hg
⢠Stage 2âSBP is equal to or more than 160 mm Hg; DBP is equal to or
more than 100 mm Hg

Why Is This Concept Important?
Two tests for tight, early binding

Knowing when to bind data, and how
tightly, to vocabularies and rules is
THE KEY to analytic success and agility
Is the rule or vocabulary widely
accepted as true and accurate in
the organization or industry?
Comprehensive
Agreement
Is the rule or vocabulary stable
and rarely change?
Persistent
Agreement

represent 80-90% of analytic use cases. This will
grow over time, but right now, itâs fairly simple.

In Conclusion
⢠Late Binding is not complicated; donât overthink it
⢠Itâs more simple than what weâve been doing. Itâs just
contrary to current thinking, which makes it seem
complicated.
⢠Early binding is fine⌠do it whenever you can
⢠As long as youâve reached Comprehensive and
Persistent agreement on the facts that affect the
analytic use cases in your environment
⢠Sometimes I wish I would have called it Just In Time
Binding
