Monitor Care Providers

The algorithm collects all annual accounts that are publicly submitted to the CIBG and combines them with annual accounts requested from providers by the Municipality of Tilburg itself. This is displayed in a dashboard where the Municipality of Tilburg can check from the annual accounts whether healthcare providers comply with their contract agreements.

Goal and impact

Tilburg municipality wants to use this algorithm to ensure that the money paid to healthcare providers to provide care is actually spent on that care.

Considerations

Checking financial statements is time-consuming without this algorithm. We want community money that goes to care to actually benefit the people who need it. In addition, the algorithm promotes the quality of outcomes because it is less error-prone than an individual.

Human intervention

The dashboard only shows some figures with an interpretation of these numbers. This signal does not produce any decisions per se, but is an indication of possible unlawful spending of healthcare money. The investigation is always started by an official and carried out by an official.

Risk management

The algorithm also looks at annual accounts of sole traders. We mitigate this risk by making agreements with these healthcare providers on the submission of annual accounts. The Tilburg municipality therefore works with annual accounts submitted by these entrepreneurs themselves.

  • The algorithm recognises the biometric data of driving licences, identity cards and passports, making it clear to the municipality whether the resident is who they say they are. This allows the municipality to check whether they are delivering municipal services to the right person.

  • The aim of the information service is to help the municipality understand which citizens may be entitled to special assistance, due to incomplete state pension benefits. The algorithm works like a postman, receiving a list of citizens from the SVB, splitting it up and delivering it. So that each municipality receives a list of its own citizens.
