BERG announced a multi-year agreement between BERG Analytics, a division of BERG, and BD's MedMined solution. This new collaboration will leverage the combined healthcare IT expertise of BD and BERG to focus on the development of a medication adherence algorithm that will help healthcare workers identify certain patient populations that are at the high risk for nonadherence post-discharge. Through this innovative solution, clinicians will be able to better prioritize patient interventions and engage the most appropriate ancillary staff to improve patient outcomes once they leave the hospital.

BERG Analytics' proprietary artificial intelligence-based platform bAIcis will be used to gather Patient Intelligence and develop custom risk models of medication non-adherence for a number of chronic and acute conditions to enhance BD's MedMined solution for healthcare providers. BERG's bAIcis analyzes data in a hypothesis free manner, discovering new knowledge in an unbiased and strictly data driven way.
