Waukesha-based ProHealth care said it has become the first health care system to use Verona-based Epic System Corp.’s “Cogito” data warehouse.
The health provider said it is adding this as a tool for population health management, in an effort to “converge data sources and create physician profiles, which allow physicians to easily see which of their patients are in need of important health screenings or care interventions.”
“Our new physician-specific practice profiles represent a huge advance in our ability to both improve the care of individual patients and manage the health of the population we serve,” said Kathy Scott, Ph.D., ProHealth Care’s chief innovation officer.
The system provides profiles for more than 460 physicians in the ProHealth Solutions accountable care organization.
