Real-World Data

Data You Can Trust. Results You Can Count On.


The Power of BHI Data

When you need to demonstrate the value, safety, and efficacy of drugs, products, or services, you need access to reliable real-world data. Yet many vendors’ data is compromised by a lack of continuous enrollment, limited geographic representation, latency, gaps in individual patient journeys, inconsistent formatting, and other issues.

BHI’s fully adjudicated, closed-claims database offers a unique blend of attributes:

  • Size and geographic representation of patient cohorts
  • Continuous patient enrollment
  • Consistency and stability of data contributors
  • High-quality financial fields
  • Consistent formatting
  • Frequency of updates

It’s the same data trusted to power health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) and other analytics across the enterprise by leading life science, medical device, payer, and digital health companies.

Superior Data Quality and Timeliness

Our single data-model submission platform assures uniformity and timeliness, eliminating the formatting and reliability issues of multiple-vendor solutions. Our data then undergoes four levels of quality and integrity validation, plus actuarial certification by Milliman. This results in a complete view of patients’ diagnoses, procedures, and drug regimens, ready for analytics.

While many closed-claims data vendors build data on a fixed schedule, we pull data for customers as needed. We also refresh our data monthly, with updates available within 60 days of claims adjudication, minimizing data latency.

“This study helped us address the cost side of the quality and cost equation. It independently verified what we know to be true: that we’re the lowest-cost low back pain providers.”

CASE STUDY

How One Provider Realized the Power of BHI’s Real-World Data
Providers from Spine Team Texas enlisted BHI data to validate their conservative, multidisciplinary approach to treating low back pain, comparing costs to similar practices in a defined geographic area focusing on a specific CPT code.

Additional Highlights

We go beyond providing you access to closed-claims data.

Analytics and Data Science

Our team of health economists and data scientists are available to provide highly-targeted insights through advanced data analysis.

Financial Detail

The data is derived from adjudicated claims and reflects actual allowable costs, not maximum allowable costs or proxy estimates.

Tokenization

Our data is linkable through several token engines that are widely accepted today.
