\nxCures Latest Customer Benefitting from Access to Relevant Oncology Data Within Minutes, Using a Single API<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Particle Health<\/a>, a developer-friendly API platform for bi-directional healthcare data exchange, today announced the availability of its Specialty Search \u2013 a newly expanded Record Locator Service (RLS) capability designed to enable healthcare companies to search for condition-specific patient records distributed across specialty sites in the United States.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nA key component of the health data exchange process is how an RLS can search different networks and health information exchanges (HIE) for medical records. For years, Particle Health has been working to address<\/a> the limitations of traditional data queries that perform a radius search for a patient\u2019s records. Building off that success, Specialty Search now makes condition-specific search even simpler, starting with four health focuses: oncology, cardiology, endocrinology, and orthopedics each associated with generating above average volumes of medical records. Specialty Search allows healthcare companies to seamlessly search top national health centers of excellence based on condition, ensuring that the most comprehensive patient records can be collected. This is accomplished by elevating how this previously disparate data is aggregated at scale.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cPatients battling cancer commonly have more disjointed medical records, which is attributed to the common need to travel between care sites and medical centers of excellence for treatment. As a result, consolidating their entire journey through the aggregation of patient data can be challenging,\u201d said Troy Bannister, CEO of Particle Heath. \u201cBut oftentimes it is not just about how many records we find, but rather finding the few vital clinical data points that can have the greatest impact on an individual\u2019s health. This is precisely why Particle Health built Specialty Search. It\u2019s not only about finding the greatest volume of data, but about providing a simple, seamless way to deliver the most critical patient information to the right person at the right time. This data can have a substantial impact on how treatment is ultimately delivered.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nxCures is Already Reporting the Benefits from Particle Health\u2019s Specialty Search Capabilities<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

\nxCures is the latest Particle Health customer generating real-time data insights via the Specialty Search capabilities. The company\u2019s technology platform uses artificial intelligence and predictive modeling to identify and rank the most promising treatment options for people with cancer. To date, it\u2019s been challenging for cancer patients, their families, and their partners to gather up-to-date data needed for care. Working in collaboration with Particle Health, this configuration change to support Specialty Search was implemented seamlessly and xCures was able to begin pulling relevant oncology data within minutes, using one simple API connection.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe ability to gain access to comprehensive medical histories quickly is central to everything that xCures does, as a business, as a patient, and as a physician-facing organization,\u201d said Zach Kaufman, Director of Product Management at xCures. \u201cLike many others in our space, we have long been forced to approach acquiring targeted healthcare records from source institutions as a game of attrition. We wear out operational resources on both sides of a records request by pursuing a series of faxes, phone calls, revised releases, and solutions to other obstacles that inhibit not only access to patient case data, but timely access to that data. Access to consolidated data streams via Particle Health’s integrated networks has been a key driver for xCures’ growth, scalability, and service improvements.\u201c\n<\/p>\n

\nSince the implementation, using Particle Health\u2019s Specialty Search generated the following results for xCures:\n<\/p>\n
