| | MARCH 201919UTLOOK Healthcare Tech Orion Health also offers a cloud-based big data platform--Amadeus--for end-to-end population health and precision medicine through its cloud-based big data platform--Amadeus. It is a highly scalable platform that aggregates health data from traditional as well as non-traditional sources and provides healthcare professionals with real-time cognitive support to make the best possible decisions at the point of care. Amadeus accommodates voluminous data that strengthens the population health management and precision medicine models of healthcare. The considerable increase in the amount and sources of data makes the integration strenuous for healthcare professionals. Orion Health is committed to ensuring that these professionals have tools for interoperability--that offer the ability of computer systems or software to exchange and make use of information--to access accurate and comprehensive data. The company's solution for interoperability includes open application programming interfaces (APIs). Aligned with industry standards, these open APIs provide a number of benefits and support new applications to be built on top of the Amadeus platform. The platform's API management layer allows third-party developers to build new capabilities on the platform, creating an innovative healthcare ecosystem.Amadeus--the open healthcare platform--not only imparts the functionality that organizations need today, but is also poised to meet the needs of tomorrow. Orion Health is helping companies in delivering the recommendations laid out in the Five Year Forward View and the Personalized Health and Care 2020 framework by NHS England.
