DiagnosisOne Unveils New Name, Alere Analytics
DiagnosisOne, an Alere subsidiary specializing in analytics and clinical decision support technology, will now be conducting business as Alere Analytics. The name change reflects a continued focus on providing the healthcare industry with a broad array of analytical and clinical decision support solutions, including real-time patient and population assessment. These solutions are delivered through a powerful platform that integrates Meaningful Use-required interoperability and accountable-care standards at the point of care.
Alere Analytics, formally known as DiagnosisOne, embarked on a rebranding campaign after joining Alere in July 2012. The new name distinguishes the company as an industry leader in providing intelligent, actionable information that comprehensively addresses gaps across the healthcare continuum.
“Like the other parts of Alere, we are dedicated to providing patient-centric solutions that improve health outcomes at the point of care and beyond,” said Mansoor Khan, Sc.D., chief executive officer of Alere Analytics. “Analytics and decision support have become increasingly important to providers, hospitals and payers as they focus on empowering clinicians to make the most informed decisions and set accountable, value-driven care plans for their patients. Since our technology platform generates immediate care recommendations, our solution can trigger earlier interventions, reduce avoidable errors, and improve overall health outcomes at both a patient and population level.”
Commenting on the Alere Analytics rebranding, Alere CEO Ron Zwanziger, stated, “Clinical decision support and analytics tools play a vital role in our ability to offer comprehensive health information solutions by enabling providers to personalize care for each patient, which in turn contributes to increased treatment effectiveness, improved outcomes, and reduced costs.”
Alere’s Clinical Decision Support solution leverages what is arguably the world’s largest library of evidence-based guidelines and activates patient information via patient-specific recommendations and alerts made at the point of care and in between doctor visits. Built to meet industry standards such as HL7v3, CCD and CDA, it can be easily integrated into any hospital HIS, EHR/PHR, and HIE system’s workflows. Its analytics tools, which facilitate population assessment, predictive modeling, and risk stratification, help providers improve care quality, lower costs, and maximize available incentive payments from programs that include HEDIS, PQRS, and Meaningful Use.
