India's healthcare sector is undergoing a digital revolution, with app-based services flourishing alongside traditional medical practices. This rapid growth, however, has come with a concerning rise in cyber security breaches, exposing sensitive patient data. Medical data breaches create significant dangers for patients fueling identity theft, fraud, and blackmail on the dark web. Adding on to this conversation with Digital Health News, I stressed the importance of strong data privacy regulations for healthcare startups: https://lnkd.in/guWVsHWw Thanks to Arti Ghargi and Digital Health News Digital Health News for featuring my contribution alongside other industry leaders. #Digitalhealth #triotree #technology #healthcare #datasecurity #patientcare #databreaches #digitalhealthnews #digitalhealthindia #dataprivacy TrioTree Technologies Pvt Ltd

This is an interesting article because EHR companies, like Epic and Oracle's Cerner, have made siloing data a major part of their business model. Overall, I like EPIC’s ability to review records from other EPIC shops. It also has a nod to interoperability with its “Care Everywhere“ feature. However, this is often a disorganized and outdated collection of information. Using it requires a ninja level of both tech expertise and medical knowledge possessed mainly by younger physicians and chief residents. I am a fan (and advisor) of companies like Zus Health focused on user-friendly, comprehensive, and up-to-date interoperable health care data tools.

Predictions for the Healthcare Analytics Space in 2025 Increased Integration Across Data Ecosystems As value-based care models continue to expand, seamless data integration across clinical, claims, and social determinants of health (SDOH) sources will become critical. Organizations will prioritize interoperability through networks like QHINs, Carequality, and CommonWell to create a unified patient view. Interoperability Will Become Non-Negotiable Regulatory and operational pressures will force healthcare organizations to embrace true interoperability, with frameworks like TEFCA, QHINs, and platforms like Carequality/CommonWell gaining momentum. Seamless data exchange will shift from a competitive edge to a baseline requirement. Shift from Retrospective to Predictive Analytics Organizations will move away from merely reporting past events and toward anticipating future risks, costs, and care needs. Predictive models will guide both operational efficiencies and patient care interventions. Demand for Transparent ROI Healthcare organizations will increasingly demand clear ROI from analytics investments, driven by financial pressures and accountability in value-based contracts. Solutions must demonstrate tangible outcomes like cost savings, care improvements, and enhanced risk stratification. Rise of Decentralized and Multi-Tenant Data Repositories As data ownership and governance become central, healthcare providers will adopt multi-tenant architectures to securely store and access aggregated data while maintaining control over proprietary information. AI and Machine Learning in Care Pathways(*) The use of AI to identify care gaps, optimize workflows, and automate routine tasks will grow exponentially. Providers will seek analytics solutions incorporating explainable AI to maintain trust and compliance. (*) Steep adoption curve Focus on SDOH for Equitable Healthcare Delivery Payers and providers will deepen their focus on SDOH to address health inequities. Analytics platforms will need to integrate SDOH data into actionable strategies for population health management. Emergence of Modular and Workflow-Specific Tools Comprehensive dashboards will give way to modular, workflow-specific tools that empower users to interact directly with data. These tools will emphasize usability and decision-making at the point of need. Partnerships Over Proprietary Solutions Collaboration between analytics providers and adjacent industries (e.g., tech, pharma, and public health) will drive innovation and adoption. Open ecosystems will gain traction over closed, proprietary platforms.

Somewhat predictably, the headlines of Epic's UGM were mostly focused on AI. In my mind, the ones to focus on got buried as footnotes. Products leveraging Epic's position as the dominant inpatient EHR and selling differentiated products as a wedge into new markets (mostly under Health Grid) should frighten other healthcare vendors more than the AI arms race (which they'll largely win as the default option): - Payer Platform: A Health Grid product for payers. This was decently well covered, but that's because it's a mature product at this point. A lot of outlets covered it as if it was net new, but it was launched in 2019. The most noteworthy piece is Judy's quote saying they’re investigating submitting claims directly through Epic so you don’t need a clearinghouse - this represents a threat to clearinghouses and could represent the expansion from Payer Platform as a beachhead to attack incumbent SaaS, claims processing systems. - Epic Aura (labs): This is a Health Grid product for labs. This was launched previously. I don't see any announcements, but this is a beachhead for Epic to sell to labs that have or built their own LIS, allowing them to eventually replace it over time (or at least have all major labs as customers). This threatens existing LISes even more than Epic's LIS product, Beaker. They also announced a planned Blood Bank module, which increases their appeal as an all-encompassing LIS in this push. - Epic Aura (medical devices): A new sub-category of Aura (and Health Grid) for expanding into medical devices. I was waiting to see if they'd launch a separate category for medical devices or reuse Aura. First devices are cardiac arrhythmia and CGM. This threatens businesses like Redox to some degree. - Per Healthcare IT today, "Judy said they’re working on better surgical device manufacture planning leveraging the Epic schedule." This sounds like further expansion of Aura/Health Grid to surgical supply manufacturers. - I was surprised to not hear any updates about Discovery, Epic's Health Grid program for pharma. I'm curious what shape that will take. - I thought the use of the state of Washington + the Garden Plot model is a smart distribution play. Garden Plot has existed since at least 2022, but using a state for distribution to get to new markets that Epic struggles to sell to (small clinics, behavioral health clinics, correctional medical facilities and tribal facilities) is again another example of their expansionary mode. Health Grid products will be more impactful than the Vendor Services rat races or AI wars. It's worth paying attention to and taking advantage of: https://lnkd.in/gimisDzZ

In Part 2 of our conversation, John Lynn of Healthcare IT Today and I shifted from Epic discussion to more general healthcare interoperability. Teddy Roosevelt, Battlebots, and interoperability’s “messy shitshow” - we covered a lot of ground. Some highlights from our discussion: - The reality of EHR integration approaches - from sanctioned interfaces to RPA to direct database access - Why I was initially skeptical about TEFCA but have become optimistic about its potential - How information blocking regulations are acting as a "big stick" to drive meaningful industry collaboration - The importance of symmetric, transparent relationships in healthcare data exchange - Why solving specific workflows matters more than generic "data sharing" We also dug into the evolving dynamics between EHR vendors (especially Epic) and third-party developers, strategies for startups approaching integration, and how recent market events are accelerating QHIN adoption.
