Darena Solutions, Leidos, and SLI Compliance have partnered to launch a groundbreaking verification program for artificial intelligence (AI) applications in healthcare. This program aims to streamline the integration of AI with Electronic Health Records (EHRs) by bridging the existing gap between the growing demand for AI and the challenges of integrating it seamlessly with EHRs.
The collaboration between Darena Solutions, Leidos, and SLI Compliance is the first of its kind, bringing together two ONC-approved test labs. Darena Solutions will bring their MeldRx platform to streamline the development and deployment of AI applications. Leidos, with its extensive experience in security and healthcare product certification spanning over 20 years, will contribute its AT&E expertise. SLI Compliance, as an ONC-ATL and ONC-ACB, will lend its proficiency in health IT testing and certification.
Integration of AI with EHRs has been a major challenge in the healthcare industry, despite the surge in AI innovation. This new initiative aims to address this challenge by providing a robust verification process specifically designed for AI applications built using SMART on FHIR. This approach ensures interoperability across diverse EHR systems, promotes trust, and enhances patient care by enabling seamless data access. With the MeldRx platform from Darena Solutions, the development, testing, and deployment of verified AI applications will be simplified.
The key objectives of this program encompass rigorous evaluation of AI applications to ensure alignment with clinical, technical, and ethical standards. Additionally, it aims to facilitate seamless integration with various EHR systems to improve data access and patient care. By establishing a thorough verification process, the program also aims to provide healthcare professionals and patients with confidence in the reliability and efficacy of AI applications.
This collaboration represents a significant step towards the seamless and trustworthy integration of AI into the healthcare sector. Pawan Jindal, MD, Founder and CEO of Darena Solutions, expressed the importance of this initiative, stating, This collaboration marks a significant step toward ensuring that these solutions not only integrate seamlessly but are also trustworthy and clinically beneficial.
The healthcare AI app verification program launched by Darena Solutions, Leidos, and SLI Compliance is set to revolutionize the integration of AI into healthcare and pave the way for enhanced patient care through seamless data access and interoperability across EHR systems. The industry welcomes this initiative as it aims to bridge the gap between AI innovation and the challenges of integrating it effectively into the healthcare ecosystem.
