New Delhi: Cognizant and Microsoft have announced a partnership to develop cloud-based healthcare solutions. The joint effort is aimed at helping healthcare providers improve patient outcomes, enhance patient experiences, and reduce the cost of care.
The new healthcare solutions will combine Cognizant’s deep healthcare expertise with Microsoft’s cloud and artificial intelligence capabilities. The solutions will focus on providing healthcare providers with real-time data and analytics, enabling them to make informed decisions about patient care.
According to Brian Humphries, CEO of Cognizant, “Healthcare organizations are facing unprecedented challenges, including increasing demands for access to care, rising costs, and a shortage of skilled workers. The partnership between Cognizant and Microsoft will help healthcare providers address these challenges by leveraging the power of the cloud and artificial intelligence technologies.”
The new solutions will enable healthcare providers to access patient data from multiple sources, including electronic health records (EHRs), wearables, and other medical devices. The solutions will also provide real-time analytics and predictive modeling capabilities, allowing providers to identify potential health risks and intervene before they become serious.
Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform will serve as the foundation for the new healthcare solutions, providing secure and scalable infrastructure for storing and analyzing healthcare data. Microsoft’s artificial intelligence tools, including Azure Machine Learning and Power BI, will enable healthcare providers to derive insights from large datasets and make informed decisions about patient care.
“By combining our healthcare expertise with Microsoft’s cloud and AI capabilities, we can help healthcare providers transform the way they deliver care,” said Srinivas Shankar, senior vice president and global head of healthcare at Cognizant. “Together, we can help healthcare organizations improve patient outcomes, reduce costs, and enhance patient experiences.”
The partnership between Cognizant and Microsoft is expected to have a significant impact on the healthcare industry, helping providers to better leverage technology to improve patient care. The new solutions are expected to be available in the near future, and healthcare providers are encouraged to explore the benefits of cloud-based healthcare solutions as they seek to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs.
