Own the Future of Healthcare: Aetion’s AI/ML Tools Turn Data Into Impact

Written by Natalie Schibell, MPH | Nov 21, 2024

Healthcare stands at a crossroads. The pressure to deliver better care at lower costs is relentless, but the key to unlocking this potential lies hidden in mountains of complex data. Those who unlock the full potential of their data will set the course for the future of healthcare. The question is: will you lead or be left behind?

At Aetion, we’re empowering healthcare leaders to rise to this challenge. Our AI/ML suite transforms complex datasets into strategic assets. With tools like Smart Risk Profiling, Measures Assistant, and Aetion® Generate, we help organizations uncover hidden insights, streamline decision-making, and break through data silos, all while safeguarding patient privacy.

This is analytics with purpose—designed to deliver actionable results where they matter most.

 

Smart Risk Profiling: Precision in Patient Segmentation

Understanding which patients drive costs and resource utilization is key to making informed decisions. Smart Risk Profiling, embedded in the Aetion® Discover application, uses machine learning to deliver a detailed view of patient populations, enabling more targeted and effective interventions.

Core Capabilities:

  • Automated Segmentation: Instantly classifies patients into low, moderate, and high cost or Healthcare Resource Utilization (HCRU) groups, providing immediate clarity on where to focus resources.
  • Advanced Predictive Modeling: Built on hundreds of covariates from Discover's Measure Library, this model identifies the key drivers behind high costs and resource use.
  • Actionable Visuals: Highlights the top five predictors for high-cost groups, transforming raw data into insights that inform action.
  • Customizable Views: Toggle between patient-paid and payer-paid costs or drill down into specific subgroups to tailor your analysis.

What It Means:
Smart Risk Profiling delivers more than just data; it provides a roadmap for action. By pinpointing the drivers of cost and resource use, healthcare organizations can focus their efforts where they’ll have the most impact, improving outcomes while controlling costs.

 

Measures Assistant: Simplifying Complex Analytics

Defining reliable analytical measures is essential for accurate analysis but often involves a painstaking process. Aetion Measures Assistant eliminates the guesswork by providing guided, AI-driven support that helps teams move seamlessly from intent to execution.

Key Features:

  • Real-Time AI Guidance: An intuitive chatbot offers step-by-step support, helping users define and refine complex measures quickly.
  • Scientifically Informed Safeguards: Leverages Aetion’s scientific expertise to provide automated checks, reducing errors and enhancing confidence, while guiding users through complex measure creation.
  • Tailored Focus: Specifically designed for measure creation, it streamlines workflows and accelerates time-to-insight.
  • Continuous Improvement: Adapts based on user feedback, ensuring it evolves to meet the needs of healthcare analysts.

Why It Matters:
Measures Assistant turns a traditionally time-consuming task into a streamlined, efficient process. This enables healthcare teams to spend less time setting up analyses and more time driving insights that lead to better decisions.

 

Aetion Generate: Unlocking Data Without Compromise

Data privacy regulations often limit access to critical datasets, slowing research and collaboration. Generate solves this by creating synthetic datasets that mirror the statistical properties of real-world data while preserving privacy.

Transformative Capabilities:

  • Privacy-First Analytics: Conduct comprehensive analyses without exposing sensitive patient information, ensuring compliance with even the strictest privacy standards.
  • Seamless Collaboration: Share and analyze data securely across teams and organizations, accelerating research and fostering innovation.

What It Means:
Aetion Generate allows healthcare organizations to access and analyze data that was previously out of reach. By enabling privacy-compliant collaboration, it opens the door to deeper insights and broader innovation.
