Tempus introduces its AI-enabled care pathway intelligence platform 

Tempus, a leader in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and precision medicine, is introducing Tempus Next, a care pathway intelligence platform. By harnessing the power of AI, Tempus Next identifies care gaps and equips clinicians with actionable insights at the point of care, supporting access to the most up-to-date, guideline-directed treatments. 

Tempus Next is designed to accelerate the adoption of precision medicine and enhance patient outcomes. The solution integrates seamlessly with EMRs in order to analyse a comprehensive suite of data—including clinical notes, molecular information and imaging—to pinpoint deviations from care guidelines. Participating health systems receive regular updates, enabling them to maintain high care quality standards and track patient outcomes effectively. 

“Given that Tempus is now connected in near real time to more than 50% of all oncologists in the US, we have the ability to deploy AI solutions at a scale that has historically not been possible,” said Eric Lefkofsky, CEO and Founder of Tempus. “The increasing complexity of guidelines and the compounding data that physicians need to access in order to treat their patients has created a growing number of care gaps. Next is designed to help close those gaps by seamlessly notifying care teams when a guideline or standard is not being followed, so that every patient has access to the personalised attention and treatment they deserve.” 

Tempus has extensive experience delivering care pathway intelligence in cardiology, with over sixty care pathway intelligence algorithms in cardiovascular disease currently deployed across more than eighty hospitals. Tempus Next has expanded into oncology, starting with lung cancer and breast cancer, with a number of leading institutions. 

“We are at the cusp of a healthcare transformation, and with Tempus Next, we anticipate setting a new standard for patient care,” said Andrew Parchman, MD, Precision Oncology Medical Director, Medical Oncologist, TriHealth Cancer Institute. “This platform’s ability to notify us of care gaps and guide evidence-based decisions in real time aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver personalized, proactive treatment to every patient.”
