Innovaccer has revamped its Big Data IT suite, dubbed Datashop, designed to help healthcare organizations more smoothly transition to the value-based care model by helping the organizations efficiently manage and potentially improve clinical and financial outcomes.

The value-based care-oriented platform combines Big Data technologies like Hadoop and Spark to create what Innovaccer calls an “interoperable data lake.”

Applications within the platform include: Datashop Connect pre-built connectors to various EHR and billing systems, Datashop Lake to analyze data for registries, Datashop Analyze to give clinicians a view of patient and disease registries to identify at-risk populations and improve quality measures, and the artificial intelligence tool Datashop Engage that helps increase  medication adherence.

“The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services aims to link almost 50 percent of Medicare fee-for-service to alternative payment models by 2018, and commercial payers are seeking support to improve performance around member cost containment, engagement and supervision,” explained Sandeep Gupta, co-founder and COO at Innovaccer. “This shift from volume to value-based healthcare delivery is accelerating adoption of population health management solutions helping providers effectively manage chronic conditions and prevent unnecessary system utilization.”

With a micro-services architecture, the platform brings Lego-like modularity to help providers and networks pick and choose what they need; it also can help organizations evolve per fast-moving policy changes, said Kanav Hasija, co-founder and president of Innovaccer.

Innovaccer will launch the revamped Datashop platform at Booth 6179-13 in the Population Care Management Center at HIMSS 2017.  

HIMSS17 runs from Feb. 19-23, 2017 at the Orange County Convention Center.
