Motivation: Our goal is to indicate the importance of analyzing and processing large amounts of data that go beyond the typical ways of storing and processing information. Тhе data have their own characteristics: volume, velocity and variety. There are different structures. Analysis of these data is possible with the Big Data concept. Its importance is most evident in the health sector, because the preservation of the health status of the population depends on adequate data analysis.

In this way, they are managed by the healthcare system, reducing overall healthcare costs over time, and increasing revenues. Findings: A key policy challenge is to improve the outcomes of the healthcare system, data collection and analysis, security, storage and transfers. Big data are the potential to improve quality of care, improve predictions of diseases, improve the treatment methods, reduce costs.
