Summary:

Data-driven technologies are now being adopted, developed, funded, and deployed throughout the health care market at an unprecedented scale. But, as this O'Reilly report reveals, health care innovation contains more hurdles and requires more finesse than many tech startups expect. By paying attention to the lessons from the report's findings, innovation teams can better anticipate what they'll face, and plan accordingly. Simply put, teams looking to apply collective intelligence and "big data" platforms to health and health care problems often don't appreciate the messy details of using and making sense of data in the heavily regulated hospital IT environment. Download this report today and learn how it helps prepare startups in six areas: Complexity: An enormous domain with noisy data not designed for machine consumption Computing: Lack of standard, interoperable schema for documenting human health in a digital format Context: Lack of critical contextual metadata for interpreting health data Culture: Startup difficulties in hospital ecosystems: why innovation can be a two-edged sword Contracts: Navigating the IRB, HIPAA, and EULA frameworks Commerce: The problem of how digital health startups get paid This report represents the initial findings of a study funded by a grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Subsequent reports will explore the results of three deep-dive projects the team pursued during the study.
