Autonomy updates platform for healthcare delivery organizations

Enterprise software developer Autonomy has made available the Autonomy Meaning Based Healthcare (MBH) platform; a set of clinical diagnosis and information governance technologies designed to help healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs) provide care.

Autonomy Auminence, a point-of-care analysis dashboard based on the Washington, D.C.-based company’s Bayesian inference technology, is designed to help the provider make evidence-based diagnosis decisions.

According to Autonomy, Auminence provides a checklist of diagnoses for the clinician to consider – indicating diagnoses that have the strongest statistical significance.
