ROCHE IS AWARDED IDC ’ S BEST IN FUTURE OF INTELLIGENCE AWARD FOR IMPLEMENTING DATA MESH STRATEGY AT SCALE WITH IMMUTA

Roche , one of the world ’ s largest pharmaceutical companies , was awarded IDC ’ s Future Enterprise Best in Future of Intelligence EMEA Award for its enterprise self-service data platform , which uses Immuta for data protection and fine-grained access control at both a central and domain level . IDC is a premier global provider of market intelligence and advisory services , and the award recognises organisations on the leading edge of innovation , digital transformation and operation excellence . In its inaugural year , the program received submissions spanning over 15 industries and over 600 organisations .

The award recognises Roche for their data platform transformation that has enabled them to build over 200 new data products , resulting in over US $ 50 million in benefits . The 125-year-old multinational worked with Immuta and other vendors to successfully build an enterprise-wide data mesh at scale . They moved away from relying on a central IT team solely responsible for data requests and implemented decentralised data ownership across multiple domains of the business in 90 countries across the world . With this new approach they could launch new data products more quickly and give users fast self-service access to data .
The IDC Future Enterprise Best in Future of Intelligence EMEA Award recognises organisations that are innovating around how they synthesise information , and recognised Roche ’ s data mesh strategy as a stand-out example of delivering insights at scale and developing and promoting a data culture .
Pierre Alexandre Fischer , Global Informatics , Data Platform Product Line Lead at Roche said : “ Our digital transformation strategy supports our wider business objectives of building transformative , innovative cross functional data products and data sharing solutions across the company value chain , and to deliver on our commitments to our people , partners , stakeholders and , most importantly , the patients we serve .”

PERSISTENT LAUNCHES POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT SOLUTION USING MICROSOFT AZURE OPENAI SERVICE

Persistent Systems , a global Digital Engineering and Enterprise Modernisation leader , today launched an innovative Generative AI-powered Population Health Management ( PHM ) Solution in collaboration with Microsoft . Aligned with value-based care models , the Solution identifies Social Determinants of Health ( SDoH ) to determine patients ’ non-clinical needs and better predict the cost of care driven by clinical conditions . It helps patients receive quality care at the right time and in the right place , while optimising capacity and cost-effectiveness for healthcare providers and organisations .

Predictive risk modelling is a critical tool to identify patients who will require significant medical assistance , as a relatively small proportion of the population accounts for the majority of healthcare spending . Leveraging Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service and Dynamics 365 Customer Insights , Persistent ’ s
PHM Solution identifies SDoH based on Electronic Health Records ( EHR ) data . Since up to 80 % of key patient information within an EHR is in the form of unstructured clinical notes , Persistent ’ s Solution accurately extracts this information , unlike PHM solutions in the market , which are solely dependent on third-party data sources or survey data . This innovative method , compared to existing natural language processing-based approaches , is intended to improve patient outcomes through more timely and intelligent care recommendations , and provides higher accuracy , improved scale , and increased compliance .
Ganesh Nathella , Senior Vice President and General Manager – Global Lead , HLS Business , Persistent said : “ We ’ re confident that through actionable and trackable insights and personalised intervention , this Solution will significantly improve physician ’ s and caregiver ’ s decision-making to enhance patient experience and overall care quality .”
David Rhew , M . D , Global Chief Medical Officer and Vice President of Healthcare at Microsoft said : “ The goal of population health management is to improve overall health of a population by applying cost-efficient interventions designed to promote better health for groups of individuals . To accomplish this , we need to harness data to identify individual needs , monitor the success of interventions , and benchmark against comparative data .”
