Illuminate

Illuminate provides AI-powered software and services that help hospitals and health systems identify and manage incidental findings from radiology reports and clinical documentation. The company's Discovery360 platform uses proprietary natural language processing technology to analyze unstructured data in millions of radiology reports and EMR clinical notes, identifying at-risk patients who need follow-up care across multiple disease categories including heart, lung, vascular, adrenal, and pancreatic disease.

The platform combines AI technology with nurse navigator services to support the development and operation of disease-specific surveillance and screening programs. Illuminate's approach focuses on extracting actionable insights from EMR data that might otherwise remain buried in unstructured text, enabling healthcare organizations to improve patient follow-up workflows and reduce the number of patients lost to follow-up.

The company serves over 64 hospitals and has processed more than 9.7 billion documents, identifying over 130,000 aneurysms that were previously lost to follow-up. Major health systems including Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, and Kaiser Permanente use Illuminate's solutions.

Consider Illuminate if your organization struggles with managing incidental findings at scale or has significant numbers of patients lost to follow-up after imaging studies. The platform is particularly suited for health systems that want to establish formal surveillance programs but lack the infrastructure to manually review and triage findings across large volumes of radiology reports.

Expect a combination of AI-driven automation for identifying at-risk patients and human support through nurse navigators for workflow implementation. The platform's strength lies in its ability to surface clinically significant findings that might otherwise be buried in free-text reports, with a focus on diseases that benefit from early detection and intervention.

Illuminate is exclusively focused on healthcare, specifically addressing the clinical and operational challenges of managing incidental findings discovered during medical imaging. The platform is designed around healthcare-specific use cases including compliance with ACR follow-up recommendations, reducing malpractice exposure from missed findings, and supporting quality metrics related to care coordination.

The company demonstrates deep healthcare domain expertise through its partnerships with leading academic medical centers and its understanding of radiology workflow, EMR integration requirements, and clinical follow-up processes. Their solution addresses HIPAA requirements through their BAA availability and focuses on disease categories with significant clinical and financial impact in hospital settings.

Large hospital systems and academic medical centers with high radiology volumes (hundreds of thousands to millions of studies annually) seeking to reduce malpractice risk from missed incidental findings. Organizations that want to establish revenue-generating screening programs while improving patient outcomes and care coordination.
