Verinovum Announces Chronic Care Management/COVID-19 Data Assessment for Payers

By Published On: June 17th, 2020

Healthcare data curation and enrichment company Verinovum announced today it is offering free data assessments to help payers analyze the quality and completeness of their patient clinical data necessary to identify and provide care for specific chronic disease states that render their members vulnerable to COVID-19.

“In the aftermath of the initial COVID-19 pandemic, payers are now asking how they can more accurately identify their most at-risk populations. And many have found it’s only by integrating, cleansing and enriching clinical data that they can finally connect the dots and serve their most vulnerable chronically ill members,” says Verinovum CEO Mark McCurry. “As we continue to face the COVID-19 crisis to varying degrees, payers need to proactively intervene with those who have co-related chronic diseases, including those with asthma, CHF, COPD, and diabetes to manage future medical costs and ensure their long-term health and well-being.”

Verinovum’s COVID-19 related chronic condition data assessment helps payers assess the quality of their clinical data for these specific conditions and pinpoint exactly which data elements are needed for each member cohort. The assessment involves two phases. First, within 60 days of receiving raw clinical data, Verinovum will deliver a high-level report identifying gaps in overall data completeness. Second, within the following 30 days, Verinovum will highlight areas where significant data enrichment improvements are possible for specific chronic disease use cases such as asthma or diabetes, including medications, diagnosis, procedures, lab results, vital signs, and more.

Due to the urgency and gravity of the pandemic, the assessment is being made available to payers at no cost as part of Verinovum’s ongoing commitment to helping healthcare organizations combat COVID-19.
