PointClickCare Life Sciences: Data for Better Outcomes

Representative, quality, and timely data is critical for improving patient care in today’s increasingly digital world.

Through analysis, data sets can help providers create a holistic, 360-view of their patients, focused on personalized treatments, improved communication, and enhanced health outcomes.

And within the research community, gaining access to real-world patient data—data that was historically siloed within and across disparate care settings—can help accelerate innovation designed to protect the most vulnerable among us.

With over 20 years of real-world data in long-term and post-acute care, PointClickCare is uniquely positioned to provide healthcare organizations, government agencies, and life sciences companies with the de-identified data they need to improve care outcomes come and unearth cures.  

Supporting Our Most Vulnerable Populations Today

The pandemic has driven pharma and life sciences companies to turn toward real-time data to alleviate challenges.

We were honored to have our Life Sciences solution selected by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) last October to help meet this demand by providing a key data source for understanding COVID‐19 and other threats impacting residents of long‐term care facilities.

Our Life Sciences data initiative aims to provide insights that specifically represent older adults—a population often considered to be at higher risk for severe illness—and to support research by expanding drug discovery and development.

With access to real-world data, research and development teams can gain a deeper understanding of the long-term and post-acute care demographic, resulting in more data-enriched pragmatic clinical trials and real-world evidence (RWE) studies.

Our Life Sciences solution also helps level data silos to create a connected care network powered by insights. Whether it is a drug utilization review (DUR) study or a patient journey study, our data can serve as a critical resource to gain insights into seniors, a demographic that often experiences the most care transitions across the health system.

Enhancing the Patient Experience Tomorrow

Life sciences companies are now better equipped to link data sets through encrypted PHI tokens, allowing for visibility into the complete patient journey, and separately it can marry medical claims data from payors, with rich outcomes available in electronic health records (EHRs).

This type of protected detail into the patient journey has revolutionized research, especially within the historically untapped long-term care setting.

Through standard electronic health record EHR protocols and various wearable devices, data sets are research-ready and capable of driving significant change. PointClickCare plans to lead this charge by combining its comprehensive data platforms with artificial intelligence (AI) technology to provide a “self-serve option” to customers in real time, changing the patient experience as we know it and setting new standards of care.

Fulfilling Our Mission

With coverage approaching 70% of the LTPAC market, PointClickCare continues to expand its collaborations with life science companies, government agencies, and industry advocates to gain an unprecedented understanding about the aging population. And with the potential to provide early warning, mitigate spread and find cures to the most chronic conditions of our time, these de-identified insights are vital to shaping the future of care.
