Why aggregate claims data? Because it reflects the prevalence of the conditions well, because the people needed those services. This can help inform things like how vulnerable the population overall is, what are some of the higher risk areas, and what are the more urgent areas to make programs in. Taking this further, this data can also serve as a baseline check for whether the stocked up supplies that the organization has would be enough. But that would require people more knowledgeable on what are the specific needs (supplies) for people with specific conditions. For example, if there is high prevalence of Respiratory Diseases, the organization might want to stock up on masks and create air quality programs. The current work is per state data, but the data could refined if more details on location is available.
