The Use of Advanced Analytics to Identify Best Practices and Help Improve Medical Outcomes

CTG's Joseph Eberle will present a webinar to members of America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), the national trade association representing the health insurance industry. This free webinar is also available to the public (registration information below).

Healthcare payers have an ever-increasing desire to reduce costs and improve care.  As healthcare continues to evolve, effective collaboration between payer and provider is becoming essential. An effective way to improve collaboration is by incorporating advanced analytics to identify best practices. Mr. Eberle will demonstrate utilization of Disease Risk Registries, Accountable Care Management Systems and Medical Outcomes Analytics Toolsets.

CTG’s analytics are focused on identifying critical points of care, while simultaneously determining best practices and avoiding wasteful or abusive medical treatments. Using these analytical tools can enable earlier detection of disease, provide accountable care for chronic disease, and evaluate the efficacy of providers, therapies, and drugs leading to improved medical outcomes for patients.

  1. Disease Risk Registries (DRR): DRR utilizes newly available digital evidence to determine risks and establish interventions to avoid or delay the onset of disease. The DRR system utilizes an ontology and hierarchical inference engine to compute and aggregate various levels of risk--from an individual test all the way to a complex disease with multiple co-morbidities.
  2. Accountable Care Management System (ACMS): Analytics to identify best practices and treatment plans for the chronically ill. ACMS analytics are based upon innovative multi-stage, multi-disease models that accurately represent the patient’s complexity and progression within the care management plan. The ACMS system helps identify and establish better pathways for managing multiple diseases and helps prevent progression to more complex stages of disease.
  3. Medical Outcomes Analytics Toolset (MOAT): Analytics to evaluate the performance of providers, and the efficacy of treatments and drugs to achieve better patient outcomes.
