Hospital Administrators
can improve the health of the health system.
The Central New York Care Collaborative (CNYCC) is working with Watson Health to create one of the first regional cognitive population health platforms in the United States. It will connect 2,000 care providers in Upstate New York, integrating clinical, social and behavioral data to produce holistic views of patients—helping doctors and clinicians make more-informed decisions and promote healthier behavior. CNYCC’s goal is value-based care that reduces emergency room visits and avoidable hospital stays by 25 percent over five years—improving health while lowering Medicaid costs.
