Case Study: NYC Health + Hospitals improves timely patient data sharing and care for vulnerable New Yorkers with Snowflake

NYC Health + Hospitals Elevates Care for New Yorkers Experiencing Homelessness

NYC Health + Hospitals serves more than 1.4 million New Yorkers across 70+ care locations and needed a better way to securely manage and share clinical, enrollment, eligibility, claims, and social services data to improve care for patients experiencing homelessness. The health system turned to Snowflake and its AI Data Cloud to support a modern data hub built around sensitive patient information and healthcare analytics.

Snowflake helped NYC Health + Hospitals reimagine its data architecture for faster ingestion, integration, and secure cloud data sharing across agencies and partners. With Snowflake’s elastic performance engine and healthcare-focused security controls, the organization now manages more than 100 billion rows of data and can update membership data in 5 minutes instead of 5 days, enabling timelier insights and stronger patient support.
