Mayo Clinic Platform and Google Cloud: Redefining healthcare collaboration and business models
Mayo Clinic Platform demonstrates how secure, anonymized
data can drive healthcare innovation. Through a federated data
network, researchers, clinicians and partners can expedite
medical breakthroughs while safeguarding patient privacy.
Tackling health data-sharing challenges
Mayo Clinic recognized the need for a new approach to
sharing anonymized clinical data to address key challenges:
–Protecting patient privacy: Maintaining patient trust
requires rigorous data protection, particularly for sensitive
health information.
–Eliminating data siloes: Fragmented data across
institutions limits comprehensive analysis and AI innovation.
–Achieving scalable, cost-effective solutions:
Infrastructure for large-scale data analysis demands
significant investment and resources.
A federated model for secure collaboration
Mayo Clinic Platform uses Google Cloud technology to
create a federated data-sharing model that prioritizes privacy,
security and seamless collaboration.
–Privacy compliance: Google Cloud’s robust security
framework and compliance certifications support Mayo
Clinic’s ability to meet stringent healthcare privacy standards.
–FHIR and cloud healthcare application programming
interfaces (APIs): Google Cloud’s healthcare API, based
on FHIR standards, enables seamless data exchange
and interoperability, powering advanced analytics and
machine learning.
–Federated learning: With Google Cloud’s federated
learning capabilities, AI models are trained on decentralized
datasets without moving data, and preserving privacy while
enabling collaborative model development.Mayo Clinic Platform: A reinvented business model for
streamlined data exchange
Mayo Clinic Platform is designed to promote value exchange
throughout the healthcare ecosystem and represents a new
business model. This model allows external network and
data nodes – such as research institutions, health systems
and start-ups – to connect seamlessly to the platform.
Through streamlined integration, these partners can securely
share data and insights, benefitting from Mayo Clinic’s
advanced tools and resources while contributing to a larger
pool of diverse health data. This approach enhances both
Mayo Clinic’s network value and the value created for each
participant, facilitating a dynamic, mutually beneficial data-
sharing ecosystem.
Driving innovation through a global network
By promoting a global innovation ecosystem, Mayo Clinic
Platform enables a growing network of collaborators
worldwide. Through this network, diverse data sources fuel
the development of advanced AI models that drive progress
in disease prediction, diagnosis and treatment.
Accelerating medical discovery and enhancing patient care
This collaboration between Google Cloud and Mayo Clinic
unlocks the potential of health data while protecting patient
privacy and security. By creating a collaborative environment
for secure data sharing and insights, the platform accelerates
medical discovery, facilitating the development of new
treatments, diagnostics and preventative strategies.
Ultimately, this leads to enhanced patient care and improved
health outcomes.CASE STUDY 6
