ElizaLIVE
ElizaLIVE is a multi-modal engagement platform that brings understanding of healthcare data to a whole new level.
ElizaLIVE combines data from proprietary outreach on hundreds of millions of individual interactions about health care, taking in data from automated phone conversations powered by Eliza’s proprietary speech recognition engine as well as email and web click streams.
ElizaLIVE weaves this data with clinical data, third-party, and publically-available data including IOM/HDI data sets to better understand healthcare consumers and create multi-dimensional profiles including socio-demographic, clinical, and behavioral inputs – the stuff that gets to what makes people tick.
ElizaLIVE’s data application quantifies individual engagement levels, predicting how people will behave and how they will respond to attempted interventions that would improve care and lower costs.
It’s not enough to stratify a population by how much they are likely to cost; ElizaLIVE shows whether individual members, both healthy and at risk, are likely to respond to an intervention, while creating meaningful personalized interventions, communications strategies, and programs that increase compliance and lower costs.
Healthline Surgical Procedure Guide (SPG)
Healthline Networks has created comprehensive, data-rich online learning environments to help consumers research and make informed decisions about serious surgical procedures. Leveraging Healthline’s Medically Guided™ semantic search, Healthline has incorporated CMS and FDA data to enhance their rich information resources (articles, videos, 3D animations, tools, interactive BodyMaps) and present consumers with the most comprehensive online surgical procedure resource available today.
Healthline Surgical Procedure Guides (SPG) analyze and interpret MedPar data to help consumers understand what events and incurred charges they can expect throughout each stage of the patient pathway — from preparation, to surgery, through recovery and rehabilitation. To personalize this experience, the data is immediately localized based on the user’s zip code. SPG also applies algorithms that process and summarize Hospital Compare data to provide consumers with “quick scores” that rank performance and charge trends for their hospitals against local, state, and national averages. FDA news and alerts for contextually relevant procedure data complement Healthline’s reference and education materials. Healthline’s SPG aggregates, examines and translates public health data into meaningful and user-friendly information to help consumers make more informed, confident health care decisions about serious medical procedures. SPG is the newest offering in Healthline’s suite of products – including Symptom Search, Drug Search, SmartAnswers and BodyMaps – decision support tools that reach more than 100M consumers each month when and where they are searching for trusted, credible health information.
