Biome Analytics launches groundbreaking tool to advance health equity through SDOH-driven insights

Biome Analytics, a leader in cardiovascular performance improvement, today announced a powerful new capability that enables hospitals to evaluate and improve outcomes through the lens of social determinants of health (SDOH). Through integration of the Distressed Communities Index (DCI) from the Economic Innovation Group into Biome’s analytics platform, hospitals can now assess how social and economic disparities impact clinical outcomes, operational performance and equitable care delivery. 

“This is not just another dataset, it’s a transformation in how we equip hospitals to understand and address disparities that affect patient outcomes and system performance,” said Skye Lawrence, chief product officer at Biome Analytics. 

The integration allows health systems to visualize SDOH-adjusted trends, stratify outcomes by community distress levels, and embed equity-focused decision-making into daily practice. Equity is no longer just a goal, it’s now something hospitals can measure, track, and improve. 

“For hospitals focused on equity and value-based outcomes, this marks a significant step forward.” added Amber Pawlikowski, vice president of performance improvement. “It gives clinical and administrative teams the ability to align their work with the realities of the communities they serve, backed by actionable data.”
