Boston Scientific has partnered with Accenture to create a cloud-based analytics program that allows caregivers to crunch the numbers in an effort to improve treatment for patients with chronic cardiovascular diseases.
The solution, known as ADVANTICS Care Pathway Transformation, was designed to give insights into the care of cardiovascular patients by analyzing data revolving around how a patient is diagnosed, how patients move through the hospital system and how they are educated.
“Boston Scientific and Accenture designed this digital health platform to help providers standardize care, reduce overall length of stay and lower readmission rates,” said Mike Mahoney, president and chief executive officer of Boston Scientific.
The goal of the system is to form more informed interactions between patients and caregivers, thus providing better health outcomes and lower costs for caregivers, according to Boston Scientific. The companies initially plan to make the Care Pathway Transformation solution available to hospitals in the United Kingdom and Scandinavia and expect to pilot projects throughout Europe and the United States soon.
