Healthcare Terminology Services
We are among the leading experts worldwide in healthcare terminology standards and how they relate to the larger scope of health data standards like X12, HL7V2, C-CDA, OMOP, and FHIR. We provide the payers, providers, and life science researchers in healthcare industry with comprehensive software solutions and implementation guidance related to medical informatics.
Our core competencies are tooling to support browsing, authoring and maintenance of structured terminologies, value sets, and concept maps. This includes tools for publishing and data quality analysis, methodologies and approaches for mapping between structured terminologies and/or local data sets, and curation of domain-specific value sets for patient cohorting and longitudinal data querying.
Democratizing Terminology Access
Our mission is to standardize and simplify enterprise terminology services that leverage the latest technology stacks (including microservices and containers) and cloud platforms to deploy with the goal of achieving security, stability and scalability for government, non-profit and private sector organizations.
We have the knowledge and experience to deliver high performing terminology solutions for real world applications. Instead of trying to manage all of the complexity in-house — let us do what we do best so you can focus on delivering what you do best!
AI/ML in Healthcare Needs Terminology
Healthcare data is notoriously complex and messy. We believe that analyzing and interpreting healthcare data in the context of standard terminologies is key to deriving long-term value from this data.
We are working to combine the best AI/ML approaches with content from standard healthcare terminologies. Our offerings include tooling and consulting services designed to solve the most important core data management problems facing healthcare data.
Cleansing/normalizing healthcare data to aligning with terminology standards and QA best practices
Expanding search capabilities to use word-embedding (vector-based) approaches
Performing Natural Language Processing (NLP) to bind consumer and professional health text to standard terminology codes and graphs
Developing classification models to identify key aspects of healthcare data (e.g. procedure vs condition, acronym identification and expansion, )
