We got the presentation health-tech veteran Jonathan Bush used to land $40 million for his new startup Zus Health
Zus pulls patient data from EHR companies, labs, claims networks, prescription aggregators, and other sources.Zus standardizes the data it collects in part by using the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources' standard, a common set of rules that facilitates the exchange of electronic health data from one source to another.
Zus' clients can also use the data it provides to build their own apps and new ideas for how care can be delivered, Bush said.Zus draws data into a Zus Aggregated Profile, or ZAP, for each patient, which gets summarized and integrated into the screen of the provider's existing EHR.Bush said relying on Zus' patient profile saves providers time and saves companies money on labor that would otherwise be spent manually completing those data tasks.
Zus has mainly been working with smaller EHRs that are starting to sell Zus as an upgrade to their provider customers. The EHRs can take a percentage of the resulting revenue.EHR groups can preview Zus to their provider customers, who can then upgrade to access all the data Zus has on an individual patient.On Thursday, Zus announced a partnership with Elation Health, a records company supporting 12 million patients.
