WALTHAM, Mass., February 1, 2007 — D2Hawkeye , a leader in healthcare data analytics, has been selected by Pfizer Health Solutions Inc (PHS) to provide risk stratification services for the HealthierFlorida disease management program. In addition, D2Hawkeye will be providing care analysis and other metrics to the clinical outreach team. Under the terms of its contract with PHS, D2Hawkeye will employ state-of- the-art risk modeling tools to identify Florida Medicaid participants at risk for health complications due to chronic conditions and individuals who may benefit from better care coordination.
