About Dados

Built in the data, not above it.

A healthcare data architecture firm. We rebuild the data logic, the reporting, and the governance that health systems run their decisions on. So leadership stops staring into the rearview mirror and starts steering through the windshield.

The origin

Started in the data.

It took eight years inside one building, before a day of consulting. That's where the lesson most analytics leaders never get was forged.

"I started in the data, not above it. Pulling the numbers myself, so nursing could see where they stood before the survey. I learned the lesson most analytics leaders never do: by the time the report lands, the gaps have already moved. So I stopped being the person pulling the data, and started building the systems that replace that person."

Seven years at UF Health Shands as a clinical data analyst and project lead taught me where reporting breaks. The fifteen years since have been about fixing it at scale. Principal Data Strategist at a top-20 pharmaceutical company. Senior Consultant at Deloitte. Lead Power BI Visual Designer and Developer at HCA. Data leadership across health systems, pharma, federal, and Big 4 engagements. Hands-on at the analyst level. Fluent at the executive table.

The conviction

Eight years inside
one building.

The career came later. Before consulting, before the firm, there were eight years at UF Health Shands. That's where the thesis was forged. The data was always there. The reporting was what unlocked it.

At UF Health Shands, Isaac started as a revenue-cycle clinical analyst and turned a clinical-documentation pilot into a measurable engine. The first trial lifted revenue 44.75% (about $1.4M) and clinical queries 34.44% across three departments.

Then it scaled. The documentation-improvement program grew from a single neurology pilot to 26 departments, generating $11.7M in financial impact, while a coder-productivity dashboard he designed raised throughput 26.55%. He built the RAC audit process and resolved Joint Commission, CMS, and AHCA findings through targeted analytics.

That is where the thesis was forged. The data was always there. The reporting was what unlocked it. Dados exists to do that at enterprise scale, for any health system still steering by the rearview mirror.

What we believe

Three convictions.
Earned, not borrowed.

From eight years in the building, three things we believe. Each one learned the hard way. Each one shows up in every engagement, in this order.

01

The reporting is the problem, not the data.

Health systems aren't short on data. They're short on data they can trust, fast enough to act on. We fix the logic and the pipeline. Not just the chart on top.

02

Trust is a system, not a clean-up.

A one-time scrub drifts back within a quarter. We build governed definitions, lineage, and controls. The numbers stay true long after we leave.

03

Build it to outlast us.

The goal is a system your team owns, not a dependency on ours. We hand off with the governance, documentation, and enablement your team needs to keep it running.

The name
Dādos.
/ˈdɑː.doʊs/

“Dados” is Portuguese for data. It also means dice. In complex healthcare environments, the right data strategy is what turns uncertainty into an advantage you can act on.

The ecosystem

One discipline.
Three audiences.

The thread is the same everywhere. Fix the data logic. Build reporting the team can trust. Move the organization out of the rearview mirror.

01 · Providers

Health systems & providers.

Epic Cogito reporting. Survey readiness. Revenue-cycle integrity. Enterprise BI standards for hospitals and IDNs.

02 · Partners

Consultancies & firms.

Drafted onto your team as the white-label principal architect. Healthcare-data depth that makes your engagement land. Embedded under your brand, never around it.

03 · Government

Primes on government contracts.

Drafted onto prime contractor delivery teams on government contracts where healthcare-data depth is the gap. SAM.gov registered. NMSDC MBE certified. Capability statement on request.

The depth

Deep in the tools
your team already lives in.

The credentials say the depth is real. The stack says we plug into what you already run. Both required.
