AI-Assisted Integration of Healthcare Data Produces Smart Workflow Solutions with Dejan Nenov Panaton Software

Dejan Nenov, Founder and Chairman of Panaton Software, highlights the importance of integrating healthcare data for such purposes as ordering medical tests and recruiting patients for clinical trials. The Panaton simple integration service for healthcare services uses AI to help streamline workflow, break down data silos, and provide seamless data exchange. While standardization is desirable, flexibility is essential when creating workflows that allow people to be more efficient. Dejan explains, "Imagine that you have just invented a fantastic new medical test, spent years doing the science and the research, and then millions of dollars doing your studies and FDA approval. So now you have a test and a lab that can perform it. Suddenly, you need to be able to offer that test to 100 different health systems, including the ability to get paid for it, either through private or insurance or Medicare." "You realize you have to move information just to order your tests. You have to move information from your lab to the test catalog at the EPIC system, at, let's say, Kaiser or HCA. Then, you need to take data to order the test with you. And now, I've seen cases where people spend six to 12 months just doing these integrations between their lab information systems and EMR systems. We believe that should be done in two weeks, not 12 months. And we've been able to consistently do that kind of thing again rapidly and cost-effectively."   "Similarly, with patient medical records, if you're doing a clinical trial, your biggest problem is the ability to recruit patients and sites so you can get patients enrolled in your trial. That is all dependent on data and the ability to find that specific person who matches all the criteria for participating in your research. Again, information, proper medical coding, and the ability to move data from point A to point B is the gating factor." #Panaton #HealthcareIT #DataIntegration #HealthTech #HealthcareSolutions Panaton.com Download the transcript here
