Health Insight Technologies recently announced that it has rebranded as Humedica, Inc., a venture-backed firm in Boston that plans to offer a software-as-a-service approach to clinical intelligence. Their model intends to reduce the burden of BI implementations by eliminating local infrastructure. Using ETL services, Humedica will store healthcare data at a national-level using a centralized clinical data warehouse; then offer access to the data for quality reporting and research, presumably for a fee. The article “Humedica Wants to Dose U.S. Healthcare Crisis with Clinical Analytics” by Ryan McBride offers a great overview of Humedica’s impressive endeavor.
