Accelerate Innovation

As someone who is harnessing complex data, delivering healthcare technology, and/or driving AIML-fueled innovation, you know traditional approaches to privacy protection can limit your speed, scale and even results.

Whether it’s complying with regulatory requirements or protecting the privacy of people represented in all kinds of data, you know that privacy assurance and proven compliance is must-have in healthcare. And if you’re struggling to safely unlock value from structured and unstructured data in a more agile manner, you’re not alone.

Despite the challenges, you know that your edge in the race for innovation and differentiation requires privacy strategies that keep pace with your data ambitions. Nowadays, there is a growing demand for multi-modal data that includes genomic data, free text, medical images, and even videos. At the same time, structured data is constantly changing, linkages need to be established faster, and competitors are innovating quickly through advancements in AIML. To stand out, you must bring new life to data.   

But these benefits can be out of reach without the right technology and expertise. You may be facing brittle privacy solutions that limit your ability to use all your data assets with speed, scale, and agility. Or you may be struggling to create safe or synthetic data assets quickly, and affordably.  Perhaps your business hasn’t expanded beyond structured data, and you need to drive value from the large amounts of unstructured information.  But with personal data or PHI buried in free text, image pixels, and the combined linkage of otherwise safely de-identified data, it’s no wonder that some organizations are hesitant to explore the full potential of data.

This asset delivers seven micro-stories showcasing how our clients effectively unlock the full potential of structured and unstructured data.

Whether you want to improve your products and services with data-driven R&D, enhance your analytics offerings with richer, multi-modal data, or distinguish yourself as a Business Associate under HIPAA or Data Processor under GDPR, this resource is a must-read.

Join the 100s of organizations like yours that have trusted Privacy Analytics to help drive value for healthcare from sensitive data

Privacy Analytics creates innovative solutions for business and healthcare leaders that turn sensitive information about people into data that is timely, usable, and compliant. We’ll ensure your organization can unleash maximum value from all your structured and unstructured data without running afoul of privacy and data protection laws worldwide.  As examples:

For organizations needing to move faster under HIPAA, we provide more complete and holistic privacy strategies with clear guardrails for you to use in practice.  For example, rather than a new Expert Determination every time you need to source, combine, or use data differently, we offer platform-level, statistically adaptive, and forward-looking solutions that empower you to innovate with ease and agility.

For European vendors needing to differentiate, we combine a variety of privacy-enhancing technologies to empower safe and responsible uses of patient data with auditable proof there is no reasonable basis to identify individual people in the information – allowing you to accelerate innovation while proving GDPR compliance and privacy protection.

For health tech & analytics companies worldwide, we have informed over 20 regulatory guidelines and standards for data privacy and enablement, giving you a trusted foundation to build and deliver solutions that will drive transformative improvements in healthcare.
