Bioaxis Healthcare Chooses SAS Visual Analytics

Bioaxis Healthcare, a health care provider in Greece, selected SAS Visual Analytics to provide better services to its patients and corporate clients, which include pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies and hospitals.

One of today's biggest health care problems is getting patients to comply with medical treatment. Failure to follow doctors' orders increases illness rates and hospital visits, and directly affects patients and the entire health care system.

According to a release, with SAS Visual Analytics, a highly visual, in-memory solution for exploring any amount of data very quickly, Bioaxis can now largely resolve these problems. SAS processes large volumes of data from the Bioaxis customer database, enabling the company to rapidly collect and analyze patient information. The timely, reliable reports help the company and its clients understand and resolve patient compliance issues.

"One of the key sectors in which our company invests is health care IT services, and data analysis in particular," said Vassilis Triantopoulos, CEO of Bioaxis Healthcare Greece. "The knowledge we gain helps us improve the lives of patients and helps the health care system manage costs. We selected SAS Visual Analytics for the state-of-the-art, complex analyses and reports it offers in a simple, easy-to-understand environment."

Nikos Peppas, Country Manager for SAS Greece, Cyprus and Bulgaria, commented, "We are particularly pleased that such a dynamic company as Bioaxis, which operates in a rapidly developing sector, has joined the SAS family. Bioaxis Healthcare's mission is to offer the best possible care to patients. They can now achieve that faster and more effectively with SAS Visual Analytics."

SAS is a provider of business analytics software and services.
