What You Should Know:
– Arcadia (arcadia.io), a healthcare data platform, and Vim, a healthcare middleware company, announced a strategic partnership today to deliver actionable AI-driven insights to payers, providers, and care teams.
– The strategic partnership paves the way for further innovation. Arcadia’s data platform will serve as a foundation for the development of new applications that integrate seamlessly with existing workflows. These apps have the potential to streamline various processes, including referrals, annual wellness visits, and prior authorizations.
Enhanced Provider Experience and Improved Patient Outcomes
The partnership will significantly enhance Arcadia’s ability to deliver actionable AI-driven insights directly into the workflows of payers, providers, and care teams. This streamlined approach will:
- Simplify AI Integration: Vim’s middleware platform simplifies the installation and operation of Arcadia’s native solutions – Desktop and Inform – ensuring seamless integration of AI-powered insights within existing workflows.
- Reduce Administrative Burden: Bidirectional connectivity between Arcadia and provider EHRs eliminates redundant tasks and double-documentation, freeing up valuable time for patient care.
- Turbocharge AI at the Point of Care: Vim’s platform acts as a bridge, allowing AI tools like Arcadia SageAI™ to be injected directly into the EHR. Arcadia SageAI™ leverages Arcadia’s vast dataset to generate patient summaries, develop personalized care plans, and recommend social services. This has already proven effective, with one healthcare organization experiencing a 20% reduction in pre-visit preparation time.
AI-powered Recommendations for Improved Care Coordination
Arcadia’s suite of AI tools extends beyond patient summaries. Their AI-powered recommendation engine analyzes a patient’s care journey and suggests the most effective next steps, promoting a holistic approach to healthcare. This “whole person care” approach addresses risk factors and quality gaps, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes.
Benefits for Payers: Real-time Insights and Streamlined Processes
Payers will benefit from the ability to engage and prompt providers with actionable insights at the point of care, utilizing data sources beyond just the EHR. Vim’s real-time connection, coupled with Arcadia’s data platform, empowers payers with immediate updates on point-of-care activities and simplifies the retrieval of clinical documentation directly from the EHR.
“Arcadia and Vim are aligned in our missions to improve data liquidity and reduce documentation burden on providers and care team members,” said Michael Meucci, President and CEO of Arcadia. “Combining the power of Arcadia’s data platform, analytics, predictive insights, and suite of AI tools with Vim’s point-of-care connection will improve the provider experience and support better patient outcomes.”
