AI for quality assurance

AI and automation can help health professionals catch more errors and boost productivity. Automate time-intensive and inefficient processes to reduce oversights and free up your staff for other tasks.

AI can help you:

  •  Improve your claims auditing process to become more efficient and raise performance on external audits
  •  Target root causes of common errors to improve workflows
  •  Proactively flag and hold potentially erroneous claims before they are paid out to help reduce overspending.
  •  Utilize your staff for high-value activities by automating tasks like ICD-10 medical coding

Our predictive models are built on top of your existing processes, working with your system and rules to help you improve performance and assure quality care at every level.

Cloud-based FHIR integration

Integrate and exchange protected health information (PHI) leveraging the HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard on Azure.

Neal Analytics can help organizations connect disparate data sources, such as electronic health and medical record (EHR/EMR) systems leveraging the Azure API for FHIR. It provides organizations with a quicker, simpler, scalable, and more secure way to share PHI in a HIPAA compliant manner. By leveraging Microsoft’s Azure IoT Connector for FHIR, Neal Analytics can help develop data ingestion pipelines for medical IoT devices.

Other key features of the Azure IoT Connector for FHIR include:

  • Conversion of biometric data into FHIR
  • Scalability and real-time analytics
  • Integration with Azure Stream Analytics
  • Security and logging capabilities to help support compliance in the cloud
FHIR helps disparate systems and IoT devices work together

Advanced AI-driven tumor detection on your secured edge

Project InnerEye was recently open-sourced and is now available for deployments on Azure Stack Hub to optimize for both performance and patient privacy. InnerEye uses advanced vision AI to leverage just a few doctor-initiated 2D image tagging actions to almost instantly tag and display 3D images of tumors.

InnerEye is incredibly valuable because of the scale and accuracy increases it offers. Oncologists can spend hours per patient tagging oncological MRI images as a part of their analysis and screening. Project InnerEye helps less experienced doctors ramp-up more quickly while also enabling experienced doctors to reduce the time spent tagging from three hours to 15 minutes per patient. With InnerEye, hospitals can recapture some of their most valuable employee’s time.

Neal Analytics collaborated with the Microsoft R&D team to port Project InnerEye on Azure Stack Hub, and we can leverage this unique, in-depth understanding of the underlying code to help customers customize and deploy it in a short time-to-value.
