InterSystems announced a deal with Carmel, Ind.-based Clinical Architecture to deliver patient-specific analytics to providers to enable more informed clinical decisions at the point of care.

The goal is to avoid medical errors, and improve healthcare quality and outcomes.

“Today’s healthcare industry has been data rich and insight poor,” Clinical Architecture vice president Stephanie Broderick said.  

Broderick added the partnership is designed to improve the way clinicians see data and, as such, the clinigraphic interface will also help with personalized population health management by delivering the most pertinent patient-specific information within a population health management group, the partners said.

Clinicians are often forced to sift through massive volumes of information in a patient’s record to locate the most pertinent and actionable takeaways, they noted.

With this new partnership, the information is available at the click of a button, InterSystems and Clinical Architecture executives said. It includes medication lists, comorbidities, and diagnostic tests related to a specific condition.

With Clinical Architecture, InterSystems has developed a concise “clinigraphic” presentation of condition-specific information contained in the comprehensive, longitudinal patient record, leveraging ontologies developed using Clinical Architecture’s terminology management tools.

The solution also helps identify previously undiagnosed or undocumented health conditions.

“By providing patient-centric information in an intuitive graphical display, the innovative clinigraphic solution delivers on the promise of personalized population health management,” InterSystems vice president Joe DeSantis said.
