Salesforce on Monday unveiled new functionality within its Health Cloud to address caps in care and help clinicians assess patients.

Building on the success of its EMR Adoption Model, otherwise known as EMRAM, HIMSS Analytics is introducing new models for infrastructure and supply chain and expanding its Digital Imaging Adoption Model.

The acquisition will enable HIMSS to offer hospitals guidance about bringing innovation into their systems and learning how to invest in and work with startups.

New Touchstone tool uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to pinpoint opportunities to improve from claims, CMS, EHRs, genomics and other datasets to make prioritized recommendations hospitals can use to improve.

The CIN can extract data from EHRs, clinical and financial systems to deliver a more comprehensive view of a patient’s medical history.

The new offering provides technical tools for designing and building value-based reimbursement contracts among hospitals and payers.

The company will bring digital health tools for connectivity and applied intelligence to HIMSS18.

InterQual will show the new generally-available version at HIMSS18.

The new platform helps hospitals reduce denials, increase collections and features a bot for authorization and follow-up.

The new penetration testing approach, spread over an extended time frame, enables the company to layer on analytics for identifying systemic risk.
