Recently, there have been a number of large transactions and cooperation cases in the field of health care – not only because their price tags are too obvious, but more importantly, they may become current (or in the near future) medical information technology. The changer of the game. Here are nine events worthy of our attention: ★Cerner Corp. and the US Department of Defense contract On July 29, the US Department of Defense and Senna signed the largest and most eye-catching electronic medical record system contract ever. Cerner, Seidos and Accenture took over the $9 billion “big project†with initial value streams, and it also required team members to provide “a ready-made integration within the military health systemâ€. Activities and deployment of electronic medical record system solutions," said a spokesperson for the Ministry of Defense. The US Department of Defense decision ultimately led to the division of three camps: Epic System and IBM; Cerner, Seidos, and Accenture; and Allscripts' Computer Sciences Corp. (CSC) and Hewlett- Packard). ★IBM spends $1 billion on medical imaging Following this buying trend, IBM announced on August 6 that it would use $1 billion to acquire Merge Healthcare, a global medical imaging pioneer, with the goal of using its medical imaging technology in its Watson Health division. By integrating data and images from Merge Healthcare's medical image management platform, Watson's advanced image analysis cognitive capabilities allow Watson Health to have the ability to view medical images. IBM executives said the purpose of the acquisition is to discover the value of medical imaging to help doctors make better care decisions for patients. ★CVS-Watson collaborates to study chronic diseases CVS, the largest pharmaceutical retailer in the United States, has 7,800 pharmacies and more than 1,000 unreserved clinics in the United States (that is, clinics that provide medical services to unscheduled mobile patients), which is linked to IBM's cognitive computing platform Watson. Joined the research team of chronic diseases, and plans to study how to completely eradicate diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and obesity. Together with Watson's cognitive computing capabilities and CVS's vast medical data, medical health records, pharmacy data and medical claims information were added to the study. Of course, CVS consumers and medical service providers are also included. CVS-IBM's collaborative research on chronic diseases is the leading cause of death and disability in the United States, and it also accounts for 86% of the US $2.9 trillion in annual medical expenditure. ★NantHealth cooperates with Allscripts to fight cancer NantHealth and Allscripts, two major medical information technology companies, jointly announced on March 2 to jointly develop precision medicine for nursing. Founded by a group of medical researchers, professors, surgeons, and self-made billionaire Patrick Soon-Shiong, NantHealth is committed to improving clinical medical payment methods and providing reliable clinical surgical information. And Allscripts, a medical information technology company, almost collapsed a few years ago because of the chaos of the board. It was only after the CEO of Cerner, Paul Black, became CEO. The cooperation between the two companies will bring you what they call "a comprehensive, evidence-based, personalized medical solution platform." ★Health Catalyst acquires HCD (Health Care DataWorks) Health Catalyst, a US medical data management analytics service company, acquired Health Care DataWorks (HCD), a company based in Ohio State University that is dedicated to researching patient experiences (like Health Catalyst). The acquisition means that HCD, along with its 28 employees, has become part of Health Catalyst. They will continue to work at their headquarters (Columbus, Ohio). HCD's customers, including Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, El Camino Hospital, MemorialCare Health System, Orlando Health and Tampa General Hospital, will continue to be customers of Health Catalyst. With the addition of these 28 members, Health Catalyst has a staff of nearly 400 people. And when the company started in 2008, there were only three people.
