Quest Diagnostics and Inovalon Bring Real-Time, Point-of-Care Analytics to HIMSS16 with Data Diagnostics™

Quest Diagnostics and Inovalon has announced they will showcase Data Diagnostics™, real-time analytics at the point of care, at HIMSS16, furthering the national roll-out of the solution.

Based on one of healthcare's largest datasets and integrated with nearly 600 electronic health record (EHR) platforms, Data Diagnostics provides patient-specific analyses that help the physician align clinical management with quality, utilization, risk, and financial performance goals, supporting value-based healthcare. Data Diagnostics is part of the new Quanum™ brand of Quest Diagnostics healthcare information technology solutions.

Since the announcement of the Quest and Inovalon collaboration in late 2015, Data Diagnostics has already gained interest with accountable care organizations (ACOs), health plans and provider networks and begun implementation activities. During HIMSS16, the two companies will demonstrate the solution live at their booths, Quest (Booth 2754) and Inovalon (Booth 1817), as well as during a HIMSS education session, "The Power of Real-Time Analytics at the Point of Care," with company executives on Wednesday, March 2, at 2:30 pm PT.

"Data Diagnostics brings big data insight to the clinician-patient interaction, fostering the delivery of value-based care," said Lidia Fonseca, senior vice president and chief information officer, Quest Diagnostics. "It funnels billions of data points into digestible, actionable insight about quality and other metrics that the physician can access on a laptop or mobile device via one of hundreds of EHR platforms supported by Quest. There is really nothing else like it in healthcare, and we are excited to showcase this ground-breaking solution at HIMSS."

"Today physicians, hospitals, health plans, and the myriad of integrated healthcare delivery systems are being held to the achievement of certain quality standards and value-based shared risk arrangements, yet they have very limited, if any, insight into timely patient-specific gaps in quality, risk and utilization at the point of care - where it is needed most," said Keith Dunleavy, M.D., CEO of Inovalon. "Data Diagnostics was designed to address that challenge. The sophisticated but simple to use platform not only has the ability to integrate and aggregate vast amounts of data, but also to analyze this data at tremendous speeds across hundreds of critical performance measures, enabling physicians to better assess gaps in care, help improve outcomes and achieve incentive quality metrics in real-time. This is a game changer for healthcare."
