Under a reseller agreement, Altera will offer Keena's workflow optimisation and data integration solutions to its TouchWorks Electronic Health Record (EHR) clients.

“There is both a strategic and cultural fit between our two organisations that we feel will be of significant benefit to the TouchWorks EHR client base while at the same time fulfilling a common high priority initiative for Keena and Altera.”

This agreement builds upon their existing partnership, dating back to 2008.

The partnership has a history of serving provider practices within Altera's client base by providing technology and services to enhance the clinical and financial performance of healthcare providers.

Altera Digital Health TouchWorks EHR business unit executive vice-president Ben Scharfe said: “Altera Digital Health strives to be insanely great for our clients.

“The timing is perfect for our sales team to leverage Keena’s past successes and provide an extended line of enhanced value solutions to our loyal TouchWorks EHR clients.”

Keena Healthcare Technology specialises in healthcare optimisation while Altera Digital Health is a health IT company.

Is the healthcare industry ready to fully embrace the benefits of digitalization and AI?

The healthcare, pharma, and medical devices industries are often risk-averse compared to other sectors when adopting new technologies. However, mainly due to COVID-19, these sectors have witnessed an acceleration in digital transformation. AI can revolutionize the drug discovery process and significantly reduce the time and cost to get a drug to market, particularly in areas of unmet need. There is also huge potential for AI in medical diagnostics. However, using healthcare data for AI development raises data privacy concerns, thereby limiting its adoption.
