Outcomes analyzers

Prove effectiveness and value in real-world populations

Consultants having a discussion
Outcomes Analyzers are tools designed to capture and analyze an array of inputs — from pharmacy, medical, and EMR claims to patient satisfaction and laboratory results. Through this platform, real-world data stories can be revealed, whether through outcomes-based contracting, adherence program evaluation, treatment patterns and guidelines compliance, healthcare resource utilization and cost evaluations, risk assessment/identification in patient populations, quality metric evaluation and improvement, pre-post interventions, and predictive modeling based on retrospective claims.

Quality improvement programs

Increase collaboration with payers and providers

In a marketplace that increasingly demands more comparative evidence of high-cost treatments, health outcomes and economic evaluations of a disease state can help differentiate products and drive market access. Our quality improvement programs range from traditional partnerships — including educational programs and interventions — to outcome performance measurement that provides value to manufacturers, payers, providers, and patients by increasing access to care.
