The development of information and communication technology has rapidly penetrated to several sectors including health sector. A good data management has become necessity for a healthcare company since it will provide better control of the costs and mitigate risks. However, to develop a good quality data management is complex. Therefore, data mining as one of the advancements of science and technology development offers its technique (such as decision tree) to mine the hidden information from the large amounts of medical data that may improve the decision making. It is the aim of this study to identify the potential benefits that data mining can bring to the health sector, using Indonesian Health Insurance company data as case study. The most commonly data mining technique, decision tree, was used to generate the prediction model by visualizing the tree to perform predictive analysis of chronic diseases. All the steps in data mining process such as data collection, data preprocessing and data mining have been performed by a data mining tool, named WEKA. Additionally, WEKA also was utilized to evaluate the prediction performance by measuring the accuracy, the specificity and the sensitivity. Among the result found in this study shows some factors that the health insurance can take into account when predicting the treatment cost of a patient.

The separation of teaching reading and writing has been a dominant feature of educational practice at the school level for many years. The literature on reading and writing reveals that much has been written on both skills separately but there is a lack of research on the relationship between the two. Recent research, however, has shown an emergence of interest in the reading/writing connection. Current movements in education have fostered that instruction in the language arts can be enhanced by integrating reading and writing. The fundamental issue this book examines is the interaction between reading and writing skills in English as a foreign language. It investigates whether 'effective' reading is transferable to 'effective' writing. The present book aims not only at exploring in greater empirical detail the interaction between domains which have been previously studied independently but also at testing the findings of earlier research. Undoubtedly, this book will raise a number of challenging and interesting questions as well as offer the reader an opportunity to keep abreast of developments in various fields related to the teaching of reading and writing skills.
