REAL WORLD EVIDENCE in health care improvement
In late 2012 Optum and Mayo Clinic came together to form OptumLabs, an open, collaborative research and innovation center, dedicated to improving patient care and patient value through data-driven health care research, leading-edge data science and strong partner collaboration. Since that time, approximately 150 collaborative projects have led to peer-reviewed publication, a critical step towards […]
