“We work with hospitals on the bleeding edge of innovation where the physician-scientists realize that to truly innovate in medicine, they can’t do it alone. Research and innovation occur when information is shared. But it was too hard to share data between hospitals, resulting in sample sizes too small to be useful. The PatientIQ network makes it seamless to collect and share data on a de-identified basis for the benefit of many. What we’re trying to do is difficult. It couldn’t be done even a few years ago because EHRs and vendors couldn’t connect.”
