Inovalon announced the availability of its new Population Health Insights: COVID-19 Compass Dashboard. This interactive dashboard provides data-driven insights to inform COVID-19 response plans – empowering health plans, providers, employers, and municipalities with actionable intelligence pertaining to geographic areas with a high prevalence of COVID-19 infections and populations most at-risk as they plan strategies around preventative care, re-opening businesses, and managing overall healthcare system needs.
Driven by Inovalon’s MORE2 Registry®, a primary-source dataset comprised of data from more than 315 million patients and 55 billion medical events, the dashboard displays the near real-time prevalence of COVID-19 cases by county across the nation combined with a risk exposure score comprised from analyses of each underlying geographical region’s de-identified patient cohorts known pre-existing disease conditions, demographics details, and social determinants of health (SDOH) in accordance with recommendations from the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and from other published sources of scientific guidance pertaining to factors of clinical health, demographics, and social determinants of health (SDOH) found to be relevant to COVID-19.
“Many health plans, providers, employers, and municipalities lack the infrastructure and means to integrate data from disparate data sources and provide this level of insight into a population’s relevant underlying disease burden, demographics, and socio-economic factors – all of which are critical pieces for responding effectively to the global pandemic on the respective local stage,” said Mike Burgin, executive vice president of products at Inovalon. “By providing these insights to the public, we can empower health plans, providers, employers, and government officials with another valuable tool in their arsenal to navigate decisions pertaining to re-opening commerce, pinpointing medical facilities and resources that may be most likely stressed, and geographies with individuals most at risk.”
With this comprehensive patient-level view empowered by Inovalon’s Population Health Insights, health plans, providers, and Accountable Care Organizations, have access to both clinical care and non-clinical data to more manage the underlying factors that impact the health of a population.
