Northwell Health, Siemens teams up for population health effectiveness research

Northwell Health and Siemens Healthineers have teamed up in a research partnership targeted at gauging clinical effectiveness and performing research utilizing analytics-based population health evidence.
Siemens will provide funding and research support over the next 4 years to Northwell's Imaging Clinical Effectiveness and Outcomes Research Program, or iCEOR. It will also commit full-time workers to work with Northwell Health on its population health management initiatives.
This partnership is first-of-its-kind for both Siemens and Northwell Health, stated August Calhoun, senior vice president of services, Siemens Healthineers North America. The aim, he said, is to collaborate on research that could "potentially define care pathways for several populations in the future."
