Case Study: SinfoníaRx achieves billion-dollar healthcare savings and massive scalability with IBM LinuxONE

Delivering better patient outcomes and billion-dollar savings through analytics

SinfoníaRx, a Medication Therapy Management (MTM) leader supporting about 50 million patients across 350+ health plans, faced the challenge of rapidly onboarding tens of millions of members each year while ensuring fast, accurate analysis of prescription data to detect drug interactions and improve patient outcomes. To meet these needs it turned to IBM, deploying IBM LinuxONE and IBM Db2 as its core enterprise analytics platform.

By consolidating its application and database workloads on IBM LinuxONE with Db2 (and layering IBM Security solutions and IBM/Sirius support), SinfoníaRx achieved massive scale and uninterrupted performance—onboarding >20 million members in a single year with no performance impact, serving roughly 1 in 7 U.S. citizens, and delivering over $1 billion in cumulative savings to the healthcare industry through faster, reliable analytics and alerts that prevent harmful drug interactions and reduce unnecessary care. IBM’s scalability, reliability and compliance support enabled SinfoníaRx to grow quickly without rearchitecting its applications.
