The collaboration will utilize the health IT expertise of BD, a global medical technology company, and BERG to focus on the development of a medication adherence algorithm, according to a news release. The involved parties said the algorithm aims to help healthcare workers identify certain patient populations that are at the highest risk for non-adherence post-discharge.
“We are at a tipping point in healthcare IT, where merging key technologies such as BERG data driven analytics platform and BD’s data mining expertise can provide more informed, precise solutions for clinicians,” Niven Narain, co-founder, president and CEO of BERG, said in the release. “Utilizing these technologies to understand patient populations and offer clinical decision support will become the cornerstone of creating more efficient healthcare delivery.”
