Part 1:

Create a dashboard describing the data by age group (e.g., 21-30 yrs, 31-40 yrs, 41-50 yrs, 51-60 yrs, and 61-70 yrs). The dashboard should include the graphs and charts listed in the locations described. The dashboard should be submitted as a Tableau file. A sample layout is provided in the resource, “Data Visualization With Tableau Screenshot: Preview of the Tableau Dashboard.”

  1. Top Left: Bar graph showing the average number of ER visits for each of the five age groups. Show the actual average values above each bar.
  2. Middle Left: Bar graph showing the average number of procedures for each of the five age groups. Show the actual average values above each bar.
  3. Bottom Left: Bar graph showing the average claim cost for each of the five age groups. Show the actual average values above each bar.
  4. Top Right: Pie chart showing the percent of the total sum of all claim costs for each of the five age groups. Show the actual percent values of each slice.
  5. Bottom Right: Line graph showing the percent of each age group that has one or more ER visits. Show the actual percent values of each group. To create this chart, first create a new calculated column, named “Has ER Visit,” that is equal to 1 when the patient has had one or more ER visits; otherwise 0. HINT: The average of a 0-1 column is a percent.
