The collaboration between Partners and Health Catalyst will create a new Center for Population Health that will allow clinical and administrative teams to develop and test innovative population health management strategies and then train other healthcare providers.
“This agreement with Health Catalyst and our new Center for Population Health will accelerate our care management program and improve outcomes for Partners HealthCare patients, as well as provide the infrastructure and knowledge base for broader outcomes transformation both here and across the country,” said Timothy G. Ferris, MD, the senior vice president of population health management for Partners HealthCare and new lead of the Center of Population Health.
Under the collaboration, Health Catalyst will license the technology, content and analytics innovations that Partners HealthCare, the Massachusetts General Physician Organization and the Brigham and Women’s Physician Organization have developed and will commercialize these innovations.
“Partners HealthCare has built a care management program filled with pragmatic innovations that have produced industry-leading measurable results over an extended performance period,” said Dan Burton, CEO of Health Catalyst. “Taken together, the new Center of Population Health and the intellectual property that we’re acquiring will enable Health Catalyst to further improve care management and population health outcomes, not only for Partners HealthCare but for health systems across the country.”
