DataPRO

DataPRO is a patient-reported outcomes (PRO) database product from PatientIQ, designed for healthcare organizations that need to quantify and demonstrate the value of their care services or medical devices using real-world data. It is built for health systems, specialty practices, and medical device companies seeking evidence-based value demonstration without relying on costly clinical trials or research studies.

PatientIQ maintains one of the largest real-world PRO databases in the United States, with over 20 million longitudinal PROs collected, more than 11 million patients enrolled, and data spanning over 750 healthcare organizations across more than 5,000 sites of care. DataPRO draws on this dataset to allow stakeholders to benchmark performance, conduct competitive analysis, and support value-based care and reimbursement programs.

Use Cases by Stakeholder

• Health systems: Determine how care services impact patient outcomes in real-world settings, benchmark performance against the PatientIQ network, and succeed in value-based care and reimbursement programs.
• Medical device companies: Access quantitative evidence to support product value propositions, conduct competitive analysis, unlock new markets with regulatory evidence, and track how products perform over time.
• Specialty practices: Leverage patient outcomes data to demonstrate value to payers and other stakeholders.

Core Capabilities

• Benchmarking of institutional or product performance against the broader PatientIQ network of real-world PROs.
• Identification of best practices and areas for improvement based on outcomes data.
• Recognition and optimization of high-value care patterns.
• Competitive analysis using real-world performance data.
• Support for evidence-based value demonstration framed around the equation: Value = Patient Outcomes / Cost to Achieve Them.

Platform Features

• Advanced analytics: Includes an automated biostatistics engine, a smart methods generator, and data visualizations to support quality reporting and benchmarking of patient populations.
• EHR integration: The platform is designed to integrate with Electronic Health Record systems across departments to collect PROs securely. A case study notes that UC Health integrated PatientIQ with Epic in 13 days.
• Enterprise-grade security: The platform applies security measures to protect patient health information and sensitive organizational data.
• PatientIQ network collaboration: Participating organizations can share best practices, join registries, and conduct research through the PatientIQ collaborative network.

Supported Compliance and Reporting

• DataPRO supports meeting CMS requirements, including the inpatient CMS THA/TKA PRO-PM (Patient-Reported Outcome Performance Measure) for total hip and knee arthroplasty.
• PRO data collected through the platform has been used by clients in payer negotiations to support cost savings arguments for multi-specialty practices.

DataPRO is part of the broader PatientIQ platform, which also includes ClinicalPRO, a point-of-care tool designed for any specialty or care setting that automates the collection and analysis of patient-reported data for care teams.
