Abstract

In the evolving landscape of Medicare Advantage (MA), quality performance is not only a regulatory requirement but a strategic imperative. This paper explores how data engineering and advanced analytics are transforming provider performance through data-driven quality improvement initiatives. By integrating claims, EHR, patient-reported outcomes, and social determinants of health, organizations can generate a holistic view of care delivery. Predictive modeling, provider scorecards, and incentive-aligned financial models enable proactive interventions and measurable improvements in CMS Star Ratings and financial outcomes. The paper also addresses operational challenges such as data silos and provider buy-in, emphasizing the role of cloud platforms, collaborative ecosystems, and robust data governance. Looking forward, technologies like AI, NLP, and blockchain promise to elevate the impact of analytics in value-based care. This study provides a comprehensive, data engineer–oriented perspective on optimizing MA offerings through scalable, real-time, and compliant analytics strategies that support long-term sustainability and patient-centered outcomes
