Blackford and Agamon Health Announce Commercial Partnership to Close Imaging Patient Care Gaps by Bringing AI-Based Workflow Management to Healthcare Providers

EDINBURGH, Scotland, Nov. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Blackford, the pioneering strategic AI platform and solutions provider, and Agamon Health, a leader in closing patient care gaps, today announced a commercial partnership to bring Agamon Health's Coordinate solution to healthcare professionals.

Under this strategic partnership, Agamon Health's innovative technology will be integrated with Blackford's tried-and-tested enterprise AI platform. Blackford's platform and services provides healthcare professionals access to an extensive portfolio of 100+ medical AI solutions designed to drive clinical efficiency and improve patient outcomes. By integrating Agamon Health's advanced AI tool, healthcare providers will gain access to actionable findings within radiology reports enabling notifications to referring physicians and facilitating the tracking of follow-up adherence.

"Blackford's mission is to improve the lives of patients and populations by leveraging AI to drive healthcare efficiencies," said Ben Panter, Founder and CEO of Blackford. "Radiology workflow management and follow-up are areas that can tangibly improve patient experience and care. We're therefore thrilled to add Agamon Health's Coordinate solution to our AI portfolio as this application has had demonstrable success in closing patient adherence gaps."

Agamon Health's patient adherence program enables radiology departments within hospitals and imaging centers to close the patient care gap.

"Data shows that 20% of radiology reports require a follow-up but actually less than 40% adhere to the radiologists' recommendations," said Michal Meirei, CEO of Agamon Health. "When looking for potential partners, we couldn't imagine a better partner than Blackford. Their reputation as leaders in delivering AI solutions to healthcare providers and translating them into actionable results makes them an ideal fit."

Agamon Health and Blackford will be presenting in RSNA an integrated demo of their AI-based workflow management solution at Agamon Health's booth #1249 and will be giving an exclusive talk on how to harness generative AI to empower radiology recommendations at Blackford's booth #3951.
