Datavant specializes in health data technology, focusing on the secure exchange of patient information while maintaining privacy. The company's main product is software that de-identifies patient health data, removing personal identifiers and linking records from various sources. This allows healthcare providers, researchers, and other stakeholders to share and access health data securely, which is crucial for research, treatment, and public health initiatives. For instance, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Datavant's technology helped connect different datasets to analyze the virus's effects on populations. Unlike many competitors, Datavant operates on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, charging subscription fees based on client size and data complexity, which ensures a steady revenue stream. The company's goal is to enhance data interoperability in healthcare while preserving patient privacy.
