NeuroFlow recently made headlines with the acquisition of a proprietary behavioral health analytics model developed by Intermountain Health in Salt Lake City. This strategic move is set to enhance NeuroFlow’s platform by integrating the clinically validated model, thereby boosting the company’s analytics and AI capabilities.
The predictive complexity algorithm, which has been developed and refined by Intermountain Health over the past decade, is designed to identify relationships among various data variables. This allows for targeted-risk decision-making, team treatment options, and feedback on the effectiveness of interventions. By tracking and assessing changes in patients’ conditions, the model aims to provide a more comprehensive approach to healthcare.
“In primary care, it is essential to consider the interdependent factors that influence mental, physical, and social health needs,” says Tammer Attallah, LCSW, from Intermountain Health. The standardized workflow created by Intermountain Health assesses these variables and offers decision support that identifies evidence-based resources for patients.
Utilizing data from patient self-reports, disease registries, electronic health records, and claims, the model provides a contextualized and integrated course of care. This streamlines behavioral healthcare processes, offering more reliable and relevant data to both patients and providers.
Intermountain Health has a strong track record in AI and analytics innovations, including AI-powered research and genAI initiatives. The collaboration between Intermountain Health and NeuroFlow builds on their shared commitment to advancing healthcare through technology.
NeuroFlow’s acquisition of Owl in 2024 further solidified their position in the behavioral health space. The company plans to make the enhanced capabilities of the Intermountain-developed model available to other clients, with the goal of improving provider decision-making and patient outcomes.
Dr. Brenda Reiss-Brennan, from Intermountain Health, highlights the effectiveness of the clinical workflow model in providing efficient pathways to positive outcomes. This collaboration is a testament to the power of combining expertise from different organizations to drive innovation in healthcare.
As NeuroFlow continues to expand its offerings, the integration of Intermountain Health’s behavioral health intelligence tools will undoubtedly make a significant impact on the industry. With a focus on improving patient care and provider outcomes, this partnership sets a new standard for leveraging technology in healthcare.
