Christchurch healthcare innovation company Streamliners, who deliver their flagship service HealthPathways to more than 50 health systems globally, is partnering with rapidly growing healthcare AI solutions provider Heidi Health.
The partnership, co-announced today by Streamliners and Heidi Health, will enhance the support available to frontline clinicians within the clinical consultation workflow by linking Heidi Health’s AI-powered clinician assistance with HealthPathways localised clinical guidance.
‘Clinicians use both HealthPathways and Heidi extensively in their daily practice, from GP clinics to hospital wards, and in allied health settings,’ says Mike Weiss, Streamliners CEO.
‘We’re excited to be partnering with Heidi Health as a global leader in AI integration. Linking the clinical evidence-based benefits of HealthPathways with the Heidi user experience is a natural fit for us. As health and care systems around the world continue to face extreme pressures, we’re innovating proactively to meet the demand for increased efficiency and more joined-up systems through smarter workflow integration.’
The partnership will help to accelerate evidence and policy into clinical practice, says Dr Kieran Holland, Streamliners Clinical Director of Research.
‘AI scribes and evidence products are rapidly becoming part of routine clinical workflows, and clinicians want those tools to reflect local pathways and agreed models of care. Safely and securely integrating HealthPathways with AI with appropriate safeguards will ensure patients get the best local care, save time for clinicians, and deliver system level benefits through improved patient flow. We’re pleased to be working with a well-established AI partner like Heidi as together we enable new, more efficient models of care which put the patient at the centre.’
Where local HealthPathways guidance is available, clinicians using Heidi will in future be able to benefit from it as part of an assistive, clinician-led documentation and workflow experience. Streamliners and Heidi Health will work closely together ensure the appropriate safety and security measures are in place. Development will be informed by feedback from clinicians and local stakeholders across the global HealthPathways network.
Heidi Health also announced today the release of a new evidence feature, learn more.
