Lumiata, the AI-powered predictive analytics company, today announced that it has raised $10 million in financing led by Intel Capital.

'By merging AI with data science and clinical medicine, we've made breakthrough improvements in the precision and usability of predictive analytics in healthcare,' says Ash Damle, CEO and founder of Lumiata. 'Generating high-quality predictions with detailed clinical rationale gives users the confidence to act and ultimately capture meaningful value from their data.'

'By integrating new data streams, such as IoT, with traditional clinical data, Lumiata has the potential to bring a fresh approach to managing risk with healthcare analytics,' says Steve Agritelley, General Manager of the Health and Life Sciences Group at Intel Corporation. 'We're excited by the opportunity to accelerate the deployment of predictive analytics and artificial intelligence throughout healthcare to drive more personalized value-based care.'

A Clinically-Relevant Machine for Risk Management and Care Coordination

Healthcare's rapidly evolving business models require more precise and efficient ways to manage risk. Approximately 30 percent of healthcare providers are in risk-sharing agreements today, but that figure is expected to at least double by 2020. Unfortunately, the inability to share and analyze claims and clinical data in real-time makes it virtually impossible to effectively manage risk and generate quality outcomes.

Lumiata's technology and approach to analytics enable organizations to identify and manage risk with the precision, efficiency and transparency needed to deliver on value-based care. By combining data science with medical science and literature, the Lumiata Medical Graph models human pathophysiology to yield the company's flagship product, the Lumiata Risk Matrix. The Risk Matrix provides the current and evolving risk of each individual within a population through highly precise, time-based predictions coupled with medical reasoning.

The Lumiata Medical Graph is comprised of more than 260 million data points, 4TB of structured and unstructured medical knowledge and 35,000 hours of physician review. The graph utilizes a variety of data types ranging from claims and EHR data to laboratory results and sensor readings, developed against an expanding data repository of more than 60 million patient lives. Lumiata's technology is utilized by a number of leading organizations, including Universal American, Google, and a major BlueCross plan.
