Collecting data is not a problem in the world of healthcare. A recent study found the average hospital produces approximately 50 petabytes of data every year. To help you understand how much data that is, consider 1 petabyte is the equivalent of 500 billion pages of standard printed text.

Managing data, however, is a problem. The enormous volume of data flowing into hospitals each day has created a dire need for management systems that are secure and organized in a way that enables proper patient care. Opilio was founded to empower those systems.

“Opilio is committed to empowering organizations within the healthcare sector to unlock the true potential of their data,” says Sean Shahkarami, Founder and CEO of Opilio. “We believe data holds the key to unlocking new opportunities and providing the best possible patient experience. The comprehensive solutions, industry expertise, and dedication to driving internal value and revenue opportunities we deliver provide a distinct advantage to organizations within the healthcare sector.”

Opilio’s next-generation custom software applications solve the primary problems healthcare companies face, addressing data silos, the need for privacy, and the lack of interoperability among existing systems. Its solutions enhance the efficiency of data processes, streamlining management and providing a unified view of the organization’s data landscape.

Driving improved outcomes in the healthcare sector

“Opilio is much more than a technology provider that understands healthcare, although we are that,” Shahkarami explains. “We deliver business transformation in healthcare by leveraging technology to mobilize the power of data.”

One of the ways Opilio adds value to healthcare operations is by identifying connections between healthcare data and revenue. Through predictive analysis, Opilio’s solutions can increase revenue cycle velocity by better predicting cash collections. Its analytical capabilities can also be applied to managed care contracts to achieve better results.

“By training machine learning models on your data, we help you uncover valuable insights, identify trends, and make the kind of accurate predictions that are essential to financial forecasting and other key operational processes,” Shahkarami shares. “Whether it’s predicting patient behavior, forecasting market trends, or identifying errors or fraud in billing, Opilio empowers companies to make data-driven decisions that support organizational success.”

Empowering better decision making

The capability to drive better decision making is a key benefit artificial intelligence brings to the world of data management. Opilio empowers healthcare companies to maximize that capability, adding value to the overall patient care process by mining electronic health records to inform the decision-making process.

“Our systems allow healthcare workers to leverage the data in EHRs and complement it with other data and insights,” Shahkarami says. “For example, EHR data — which we know is the holy grail of healthcare data — represents at least 80 percent of the data used to train our machine learning models. As a result, we can provide industry-leading accuracy in our predictive and prescriptive analytics, our managed care contract comparisons, and other optimization services that flow from our systems.”

Opilio also drives better decision making by increasing the interoperability of data systems. Its custom API development facilitates a seamless exchange between healthcare data systems.

“Our solutions bridge the gap between the existing systems managing healthcare data,” Shahkarami explains. “By developing custom APIs, we can enable data synchronization and eliminate the need for costly platform upgrades or changes.”

Enhancing the patient experience

Opilio’s data management tools also empower healthcare companies to enhance the patient experience. Its Integrated Platforms as a Service (iPaaS) capabilities allow the patient onboarding process to be automated while ensuring the data it provides is effectively managed. The end result is optimized clinical and business operations that connect business applications and processes to the electronic medical record system.

“With many of our clients, the simple first step is deploying an online questionnaire patients can complete pre-visit,” Shahkarami says. “This feature streamlines the data collection process and allows patients to show up, ready to check in and see the physician. It’s a more pleasurable experience for the patient, which builds loyalty and leads to better health outcomes while streamlining the data collection process.”

Ensuring data security and compliance

Data security is a huge concern in the healthcare sector, which Opilio understands and empowers. Its solutions allow companies to establish the right balance between data mobilization, security, and regulatory compliance.

“The infrastructure we provide is HIPAA compliant and allows us to keep all sensitive data encrypted at all times, even at rest, making the unauthorized use of data virtually impossible” Shahkarami explains. “We also offer a tokenized, cryptographic encryption technology add-on for clients who want to achieve higher levels of data security and governance.”

Opilio provides end-to-end solutions that address the unique data management needs healthcare companies are struggling to address. Its proprietary software applications combine iPaaS, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and custom APIs to provide a holistic solution that transforms data into a tool for unlocking new revenue streams and driving sustainable growth.
