Case Study: Precision Diagnostics achieves better patient outcomes with Microsoft Corporation Power BI and Azure

Prescription for data visualization lab uses Power BI to aggregate behavioral health and other test data

Precision Diagnostics, a San Diego-based medical diagnostics lab, processes more than 1,500 body fluid samples a day for hospitals, clinics, private practices, and insurers across the United States. The company needed a better way to turn large, complex test datasets into actionable behavioral health insights and reduce the burden of manual data review for providers, using Microsoft Power BI and Azure as part of its Precision Analytics platform.

Microsoft Corporation helped Precision Diagnostics build dashboards and analytics with Power BI, Azure SQL Data Warehouse, Azure SQL Database, and Azure Active Directory to aggregate, secure, and visualize lab data. The solution gave doctors a single dashboard to spot unexpected outcomes, drug interactions, and geographic trends, while supporting HIPAA compliance; the impact was faster, more holistic patient analysis and more financially and clinically effective care.
