Our take
Covera’s study of advanced imaging technology found complex diagnoses to have error rates of 30% or more. Their answer has been to develop powerful AI powered analytics tools to assist radiology providers in improving diagnostic accuracy, thereby reducing patient harm and healthcare expense.
It is a promising area in which to develop and deploy AI tools. Covera benefits from cloud-based access to medical records stretching back over a decade, and millions of associated data points, to refine and train their error recognition software.
Moreover, Covera is tapping into an expanding market. Not only do they serve providers in all 50 US states, they’re specializing in a niche area of a market that is expected to reach just over $80 billion by 2026. Healthcare analytics is expected to revolutionize the field over the next few years, and Covera is positioning itself as a strategically specialized player.
