MetiStream and Carilion Clinic Partner to Improve Surgical Quality Using Natural Language Processing and Artificial Intelligence

MetiStream Incorporated and Carilion Clinic announced a partnership to create an Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled solution – the Surgical Clinical Reviewer (SCR) – that will find the proverbial needle in a haystack – extracting meaningful insights from unstructured surgical quality data in electronic health records (EHRs).

“Carilion physicians know the ins and outs of reviewing surgical quality data. We are experts in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and AI,” said Chiny Driscoll, CEO and founder of MetiStream. “Together, we’re the right team to address the long-standing challenge of transforming and analyzing massive amounts of clinical text and documents.”

The search for usable insights from unstructured healthcare data within EHRs confounds clinicians across health systems every day. Clinical analysts search for those “needles in a haystack” to help clinicians construct more complete stories about their patients. The power of NLP and AI allows the data on hand to inform those stories better and rapidly improve patient outcomes.
