to patients
By aligning better patient outcomes with lower healthcare costs, indigoBlue will transform the human condition.
indigoBlue AI developed, and is deploying, an artificial intelligence and machine-learning-driven information technology platform to improve health outcomes. The platform creates an innovative, digital representation of the health status of an individual patient and the patient population as a whole.
The representation informs diagnosis, treatment, self-help and wellness/fitness planning. Geared to give preference to patient value, the platform will not allow the exploitation of individual patient data.
The indigoBlue Engine Is Tuned To Protect Patient Privacy
indigoBlue Gives Full Preference to Patient Value
Solutions generated from the indigoBlue engine are ranked according to the net value they deliver to patient. Insurance providers, healthcare providers, government regulators and healthcare industry participants can access solutions slanted towards their own priorities. The engine itself is geared towards the benefits to the patient, creating a patient-centric ecosystem.
Sharing of Patient Medical Data is Only Done in the Aggregate
Data aggregation drives patient, provider, institution and societal value without violating paramount obligation by indigoBlue to ensure that the platform does not exploit the patient. Benefits of data aggregation are many including better predictive models, improved delivery strategies, more simplified diagnosis, accelerated cures, better institutional and government policies and greater resource and infrastructure efficacy.
