Quisitive Technology Solutions has partnered with Microsoft to use Microsoft Fabric's healthcare data solutions for Ontario Workers Network (OWN), the Ottawa Hospital and other hospitals in Ontario, Canada.

Microsoft Fabric is an end-to-end analytics platform that brings together various data and analytics tools, including Microsoft Azure Data Factory, Azure Synapse Analytics and Power BI.

Quisitive will use these solutions to securely transfer 35,000 patient files to Fabric, with the aim of offering new insights into patient health, improving data analysis efficiency and enhancing predictive care capabilities.

The collaboration is intended to unlock previously inaccessible patient data, leading to more precise care plans and reduced wait times.

Quisitive CEO Mike Reinhart said: “Quisitive was honoured to be selected as a preview partner for the new healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric.

“Our team and experience are well-aligned to connect new, innovative Microsoft technology solutions with healthcare customers for successful implementations.

“While the data and technology implications of Fabric are momentous, the resulting impacts on patient care, clinician efficacy and health outcomes set this apart as a truly revolutionary solution.”

Quisitive will use its knowledge of Microsoft technology, data analytics and the healthcare industry to deliver tailored healthcare data solutions in Fabric while adhering to data privacy and compliance requirements.

Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare general manager Umesh Rustogi said: “The healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric enable organisations to unify and harmonise the wealth of data that exists within their systems.

“Using the healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric, Ontario Workers Network is empowered to alleviate clinical administrative burden, decrease wait times, and ultimately improve the quality-of-care delivery to patients in the communities it serves.”

Quisitive is a global Microsoft partner that focuses on using Microsoft's Cloud platform and related technologies to drive transformation for enterprise customers.

Healthcare companies are hesitant to invest in the metaverse

Although metaverse technologies could reinvent healthcare approaches and bring new experiences to healthcare providers and patients, adoption is still at an early stage. There are currently few use cases in the healthcare industry. The metaverse needs to overcome major challenges for healthcare, including regulation and data privacy concerns. Evidence of proven use cases and participation by a critical mass of users are imperative to drive a shift in metaverse investment.
