Early on in the pandemic, Cotiviti developed a COVID-19 tracker map that accurately predicts where in the United States new COVID-19 outbreaks would occur. Nicole Neumarker, of Cotiviti, provides insight into what impact this technology could have in the future.
Early on in the pandemic, having the ability to predict where outbreaks were going to take place was something to be desired. Cotiviti developed a COVID-19 tracker map using big data models and artificial intelligence technologies, which can accurately predict where in the United States new COVID-19 outbreaks would occur and show the relative risk of infection for people with underlying health conditions.
On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with Nicole Neumarker, the executive vice president of development and innovation at Cotiviti. Nicole shared Cotiviti’s results with their tracker map at the 2021 AcademyHealth National Health Policy Conference and provided us some insight into what impact this technology could have in the future.
