Built upon clinical data, captured with breadth, depth, and completeness, the IBM Explorys offerings for life sciences tap a wealth of clinical information for more than 63 million unique patients. Deep, longitudinal data is available for these patients for an average of 3-4 years. The data also spans the continuum of care, from ambulatory to inpatient to specialty care. IDN, CIN, and ACO data sourcing provides a comprehensive picture of the patient experience, closing the gaps that plague other EMR-based data sets. An extensive curation process helps improve accuracy and facilitates analysis by transforming disparate date and mapping key elements to widely-accepted standards. This living data set uses a data collection system that combines data streamed from a diverse and growing array of large, integrated health delivery systems and community-based networks. As a result, it can uniquely enable near real-time analyses, data enrichment, and innovative, customized offerings.
