IP Identification and Catalogue, Population Health Management

BACKGROUND

Upstream engaged with a company focusing on population health management through evidence-based medicine. The company had developed advanced analytics of patient health records and insurance payment data, and used these to develop patient care plans with the objectives of improving care and overall population health, and reducing costs..

Our Analysis

  • Upstream conducted an audit of the company’s intellectual property, which involved identifying its IP developments and preparing an IP catalogue of its IP assets.

    • By ensuring the value of its IP assets, the company would be appropriately recognized as they sought investment.

  • Upstream also brought in outside IP counsel and engaged in a program to protect trade secrets, copyrights (algorithms and database architecture), and patentable matter.

    • This ensured that the company could enter collaborations with clients and developers, with IP assets recognized and protected.

Outcome

Upstream was instrumental in making the company more aware of how it should identify and protect its IP rights in partnership and other transactions.
