MARLBOROUGH, Mass., February 11, 2019 -- Hologic, Inc. (Nasdaq: HOLX) announced today the U.S. launch of Unifi™ Analytics, a business intelligence tool that allows healthcare facilities to manage their mammography devices, monitor technologist performance, and prevent unanticipated downtime via predictive tube replacement technology.
Unifi Analytics tracks a facility’s installed base of mammography devices and provides statistical analysis of technology efficiency and technologist accuracy, allowing imaging centers to benchmark their performance against similar facilities, identify potential risks and challenges, and maximize device utilization. The web-based platform helps administrators make informed business decisions by providing actionable insights designed to optimize imaging center performance.
Using advanced machine intelligence, Unifi Analytics has the ability to predict tube failures before they occur, allowing facilities to avoid costly downtime. Additionally, predictive procedure volume and quality metrics reports notify facilities if they move off target, giving them the opportunity to make immediate adjustments and potentially stay on top of Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) compliance issues before they arise.
“As the leader in breast health, we are committed to identifying new and innovative ways to provide value to our customers, and the launch of Unifi Analytics represents a prime opportunity to build upon our reputation as the partner of choice for imaging centers across the country,” said Pete Valenti, Hologic’s Division President, Breast and Skeletal Health Solutions. “With reimbursement and payment landscapes shifting, and quality metrics and the patient experience becoming more important than ever, Unifi Analytics will serve a critical role for our partners. Our customers know they can rely on Hologic for cutting-edge, clinically proven breast health technology and unrivaled service, and we are confident they will feel the same about this new business intelligence offering.”
Data collected through Unifi Analytics is distributed through secure, encrypted channels and is de-identified in accordance with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) privacy rules. No personal health information is collected or shared.
