Industry Collabs Using Data to Transform Care
Two separate industry collaborations that utilize deidentified data to improve population health and treatment have been announced this week.
July 26 - Mayo Clinic and Mercy announced a 10-year partnership focused on using data science and deidentified patient outcomes to determine effective disease prevention and treatment. As part of the collaboration, the two health systems will pull more than a decade’s worth of deidentified clinical data and treatment outcomes from integrated EHRs. Until now, this information was too unstructured and complex to analyze. Learn More
July 28 - Ohio-based Akron Children’s Hospital has launched a strategic, multi-year partnership with data and analytics technology company Health Catalyst to advance population health and improve patient outcomes. Under the collaboration, Akron Children’s is set to implement Health Catalyst’s suite of population health solutions, including a range of data collection and analytics platforms.
