Learn from Israeli Healthcare’s Real-World Data Initatives

Author: Lynx.MD

The Israeli healthcare system is leading medical research and innovation through partnerships with Lynx.MD, a medical data intelligence platform. Israel’s biggest healthcare providers: the Government Medical Centers Division of the Israeli Ministry of Health and Clalit Health Services are advancing key strategic data initiatives and leverage secure real-world data sharing to improve patient outcomes.

Unlocking the Power of Real-World Data for Strategic Initiatives

For years, fragmented healthcare data systems and privacy concerns hampered efforts to use real-world data for strategic initiatives. Lynx.MD’s platform bridges this gap. By providing a secure and controlled environment for anonymized data sharing, Lynx.MD empowers healthcare providers to:

  • Fuel Medical Research and Development: The Kineret Project exemplifies this. Lynx.MD integrates with a vast database of patient information, allowing researchers to mine valuable insights for developing new treatments and improving healthcare delivery.
  • Enhance Population Health Management: Clalit Health Services, through its partnership with Lynx.MD, can leverage real-world data to identify at-risk populations and tailor preventive care programs. This proactive approach improves overall population health outcomes.
  • Optimize Clinical Decision-Making: Access to anonymized patient data through Lynx.MD empowers clinicians to make data-driven decisions at the point of care, potentially leading to better treatment plans and improved patient outcomes.

Measurable Results: A Win for All

The partnerships between Lynx.MD and the Israeli healthcare providers have yielded demonstrably positive results. Both Clalit Health Services and the Government Medical Centers Division have leveraged the platform to:

  • Increase Internal Research Projects: The secure and user-friendly platform has streamlined internal research efforts, enabling healthcare providers to initiate and complete a significantly higher number of in-house research projects.
  • Scale Up External Research Partnerships: Lynx.MD has facilitated a dramatic increase in the number of external research partnerships for both providers. The platform allows both provider organizations to securely partner with life science and academic researchers to securely access anonymized data, accelerating collaboration and innovation.

Secure Real-World Data Sharing: A Key to Success

The foundation of these successful partnerships lies in Lynx.MD’s secure real-world data sharing capabilities. 

  • Data Anonymization: Patient privacy remains paramount. In the case of Kineret and Clalit, they are taking the lead on all de-identification of data before granting permissioned researchers to work with the data. For other Lynx.MD partners the Lynx.MD platform ensures sensitive data is anonymized before being accessed protecting patient identities while enabling valuable research and analysis.
  • Granular Access Control: Healthcare providers retain complete control over their data. The Lynx.MD platform allows the provider organization to grant granular access permissions to researchers and institutions, ensuring data is used only for approved purposes.
  • Robust Security Protocols: Lynx.MD adheres to the strictest security protocols, safeguarding sensitive healthcare data and ensuring compliance with regulations.

A Bright Future for Healthcare

The collaborations between Lynx.MD, the Israeli Ministry of Health, and Clalit Health Services create opportunities to advance healthcare discovery informed by real-world data. By addressing strategic data initiatives and leveraging secure real-world data sharing, these partnerships pave the way for a future filled with groundbreaking discoveries, improved population health management, and ultimately, better patient outcomes.
