How Data Architects Empower Recovery:

Enterprise Data Architecture

- Design end-to-end Azure data architecture (ingestion, staging, curated, reporting layers)

- Define enterprise data domains (Clinical, RCM, CRM, Finance)

- Establish canonical data models (e.g., Patient, Encounter, Claim, Revenue)

- Reverse engineer and document the Avatar NX data model, including:

- Table structures, relationships, and data flows

- Enterprise ERDs and logical models

- Mapping vendor-specific schemas to normalized structures

- Interpreting and modeling data from a non-traditional database architecture (InterSystems Caché/IRIS), where the SQL layer represents an abstraction over a non-relational core, resulting in limited schema transparency, minimal documentation, and increased complexity in reverse engineering

Integration Strategy

- Define integration patterns across:

- Avatar NX (EHR and billing logic)

- Salesforce (CRM and engagement)

- Financial systems (GL and revenue recognition)

- Standardize data contracts and exchange patterns (batch, API, event-driven)

Data Governance & Standards

- Establish standards for naming, definitions, and data quality

- Implement governance for billing rules and derived logic

- Lead development of a data catalog, business glossary, and lineage framework

- Ensure reverse-engineered models are documented and version-controlled

- Ensure data models, pipelines, and architectural artifacts are managed using enterprise source control practices (e.g., Git) to support auditability and traceability
