MedAware is a health technology company focused on improving medication safety in hospitals and health care settings. Based in Raanana, in Israel’s Central District, it was founded in 2012 after a tragic incident in which a child died when a physician selected the wrong drug from an electronic prescribing pull-down list, highlighting human error in prescribing. A small team of physician-scientists and machine-learning specialists developed an AI-based platform that integrates with existing health IT systems, including electronic health records and related devices, to monitor safety across the patient journey. The goal is to reduce preventable medication-related harm by augmenting, rather than replacing, clinical decision support. Its customers are hospitals and other health care providers seeking to reduce medication-related risk. The platform analyzes longitudinal and real-time patient data to flag potential medication errors, risk of opioid dependence, evolving adverse drug events, and other safety concerns, enabling proactive clinician intervention. In the health care AI safety space, MedAware positions itself as an integrated solution that fits into current workflows. A notable recent development is Ballad Health’s 2023 partnership with MedAware to enhance patient safety and pharmacy operations.
