Israel's
largest health services provider partners with Cloudera to use a
data lake in its private cloud to manage and analyze data from over
half the country's population in real-time for quicker
and better-informed decision-making, improving the quality of
patient care.
TEL
AVIV, Israel, May 31, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Cloudera, the hybrid data company, today
announced its collaboration with Clalit Health Services, the
largest of Israel's four
state-mandated health service organizations. The health service
provider is set to harness the Cloudera Data Platform (CDP) to
provide high-quality, easy-to-access and around-the-clock
innovative medical services to its patients, wherever they
are.
Clalit will work with Cloudera to improve patient care for its
4.8 million members by building a next generation data lake on
CDP. The secure platform integrates into the health provider's
existing system and allows for real-time analysis and faster
processing times for insight-based decision-making, enabling Clalit
to enhance its streaming analytics and handle the ever-increasing
volumes of data coming in.
Liora Shechter, VP Digital &
Technology, Clalit Health Services, said, "We will use Cloudera
Data Platform to apply real time interfaces, artificial
intelligence and machine learning to further enhance patient care.
This will include enhancing our big data and artificial
intelligence-based C-Pi platform, which offers a powerful set of
tools based on AI to identify high-risk patients who require
proactive intervention. By mapping detailed clinical pathways based
on the most up-to-date medical guidelines, cross-referenced with
the vast amount of digital data in each patient's medical record,
we can provide proactive treatment recommendations during routine
medical encounters. This helps clinicians identify gaps in patient
care, even if they arrive due to other complaints. CDP will be
instrumental in powering C-Pi so it can provide in-depth support
for the decision-making process and help clinicians stay ahead of
the curve. With CDP, we'll be able to proactively reach patients
who need care, even before the patients know the need
care."
The health service provider will improve patient care by
analyzing streams of data from electronic health records (EHRs),
wearable devices and remote monitoring devices using Cloudera's
Apache NiFi software and CDP. This will enable Clalit to remotely
monitor patients' vital signs and recognize patterns of activity
that may be indicative of a health condition, helping to identify
potential problems and intervene before they become more serious.
Furthermore, with enhanced capability to automate the flow of
structured and unstructured data between different systems and
databases, Clalit can share and access information more efficiently
and coordinate care more effectively, resulting in improved patient
outcomes.
Oran Sharon, Regional Vice President, Cloudera, comments,
"Clalit is recognized for its innovative approach to healthcare
delivery and its use of technology to improve the quality and
efficiency of its services. We are delighted to support Clalit in
using data to transform its business to provide even better
services based on CDP."
Clalit is the second largest employer in Israel, with over 45,000 employees, including
10,000 physicians and 13,000 nurses. As such, the organization must
have a robust and secure data platform to effectively manage and
analyze the vast amounts of data it generates so it can provide
customized and high-quality healthcare to the millions of patients
that rely on it.
