Health Catalyst, Regenstrief partner to commercialize natural language processing technology

Health Catalyst and the Regenstrief Institute are working together to commercialize nDepth, Regenstrief's natural language processing technology. Indianapolis-based Regenstrief developed the technology to harness unstructured data. Salt-Lake City-based Health Catalyst, a data warehousing and analytics company, has been in the business of extracting data to boost care quality since it launched in 2008. It was developed within the Indiana Health Information Exchange, the largest and oldest HIE in the country. Regenstrief fine-tuned nDepth through extensive and repeated use, searching more than 230 million text records from more than 17 million patients.
