InterSystems Announces Clean Data as a Solution

New Solution Ingests, Cleans, and Normalizes Healthcare Data for Use in Analytics and Machine Learning Applications

InterSystems, a global leader in information technology platforms for health, business, and government applications, announced Clean Data as a Solution, the newest offering in the family of HealthShare® Managed Solutions, at InterSystems Global Summit 2019, the company’s annual conference held in Boston. The future of healthcare requires the analysis and application of clean data to ensure business operations run smoothly and patients receive optimal care. Clean Data as a Solution enables healthcare organizations to clean, normalize, aggregate, and interpret data quickly and accurately, opening the door to more advanced, automated applications.

“There is no machine learning without data. Just as clean water is essential to public health, clean data is essential to digital health. Clean Data as a Solution offers providers, payers, and patients a clean data set to accelerate the application of AI and machine learning-driven insights.”

The condition of a healthcare organization’s data can have major implications for the business – from operations to revenue. In fact, according to Gartner, the average financial impact of poor data quality on any organization is $9.7 million per year. To capitalize on the opportunities available, many healthcare organizations are using machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) models to centralize and analyze data sets from multiple sources. At the core of analytics, dashboards, population health management, AI, and machine learning is clean, comprehensive, and normalized data. In today’s complex healthcare environment, data can provide valuable insights to healthcare providers, payers, patients, life sciences companies, and contract research organizations (CRO).
