Healthcare and Life Sciences teams map the patient journey to spot care gaps and guide interventions. However, clinical records cover only what happens inside clinics, not the forces driving patient decisions. Enriching these records with lifestyle, socioeconomic, and consumer-behavior insights reveals the “why” behind health outcomes. That’s where non-clinical insights step in – revealing the real-world forces that shape patient results.
To address these blind spots, Experian and Komodo Health have teamed to integrate de-identified insights from millions of patient journeys with Experian’s socioeconomic and lifestyle data. This enriched view lets enterprises see each journey in full, identify care disparities, and craft smarter strategies – while rigorously protecting privacy.
Driving tangible outcomes and better patient care
This collaboration focuses on turning insights into action. With Experian and Komodo’s integrated clinical, socioeconomic, and lifestyle data, Healthcare and Life Sciences teams can move from insight to accuracy, building adherence programs, finding hard-to-reach patients, and demonstrating treatment success.
They can:
- Layer Komodo’s de-identified patient-level medical and pharmacy insights and analytics with Experian lifestyle and socioeconomic attributes
- Segment patient populations by condition, treatment history, and socioeconomic status
- Prioritize outreach – reducing waste and focusing resources where care is needed most
For instance:
Neighborhood-level gaps
Identify opportunities to capture untreated patients and improve clinical trial inclusion.
Income-related support
Flag populations most likely to benefit from cost-saving programs, ensuring communications highlight co-pay assistance or financial relief options.
Inside the data stack
At the core of Komodo Health’s AI-enabled healthcare analytics platform is its Healthcare Map®. This innovative tool integrates de-identified patient-level medical and pharmacy claims data from the patient journeys of over 330 million unique individuals – providing insights on diagnoses, treatments, outcomes, and care patterns across the United States. Experian enhances this data by adding socioeconomic and lifestyle characteristics that influence up to 80% of health outcomes.
Together, this combined data effectively addresses essential questions such as:
- Which neighborhoods face the highest diabetes risk?
- Where is therapy abandonment spiking?
- When should co-pay assistance messages drop?
- How can we accelerate HCP outreach or clinical-trial recruitment?
Experian’s socioeconomic and lifestyle insights: Fueling data-driven care decisions
In this context, Experian provides valuable insights into socioeconomic factors and lifestyle patterns, covering everything from household composition and income ranges to psychographics and other attributes that help build a broader understanding of an individual’s circumstances.
Where deep patient understanding, health engagement, and real-world evidence converge
As healthcare marketing, patient engagement, and real-world data converge, the Experian and Komodo collaboration is empowering Healthcare and Life Sciences teams with fast, actionable insights. Fusing de-identified patient-level clinical data with socioeconomic and lifestyle attributes helps teams engage the right patients, and fuels research from product launches to community programs. It elevates experiences while proving impact with real-world evidence.

Cookies are leaving us, but that doesn’t have to mean performance has to. That’s why Experian is taking the steps needed to future-proof identity in our Graph, including adding Unified ID 2.0 (UID2) from The Trade Desk. Experian currently supports UID2 in our Graph outputs for demand-side platforms (DSPs). UID2 support in our Graph outputs will be available to all approved partners by December 2023. In this blog post, we talk about why cookieless IDs, like UID2, that are coming to market because of cookie deprecation, are important, and how incorporating cookieless IDs into an identity graph can help you prepare for a cookieless future. What are cookieless IDs? Like cookies, cookieless IDs provide you with a comprehensive view of a consumer’s digital activity. Unlike cookies, identity providers produce cookieless IDs, using user-consented data and deterministic and probabilistic data signals (like hashed emails or mobile ad IDs). Cookieless IDs are a newer identifier that allows the advertising industry to maintain our understanding of consumers’ digital actions, helping to ensure we continue to generate smart, data-driven insights, targets, activation strategies, personalized experiences, and measurement and attribution. Why should you incorporate cookieless IDs into an identity graph? Adding cookieless IDs to an identity graph allows for licensees of the graph to: Resolve the universal ID to a consolidated consumer profile and know which other digital IDs tie to the cookieless ID Establish a unified view of the consumer with a privacy-compliant ID Produce data-driven and informed advertising strategies that still drive results, without the use of cookies Experian’s Graph Experian’s Graph is one of the most robust and signal agnostic identity graphs in the market. Experian’s Graph supports most digital IDs, including cookieless IDs, such as ID5, UID2, and Hadron ID. When you license Experian’s Graph, you increase your ability to better understand the different digital IDs that tie to a household or individual. Additionally, with our cookieless ID support, you can continue to understand your consumer and their digital IDs in the cookieless world. Why is it crucial to include UID2 support in Experian's Graph outputs? The Trade Desk is the largest, independent demand-side platform. They’ve created a cookieless ID, UID2, that they hope can power the advertising world to come across the open web. UID2 is an alternative solution to third-party cookies that when utilized in an identity graph, can offer a clearer picture of your consumer, enabling frequency controls and better management, across both digital and connected TV (CTV). Approved DSPs can add UID2s to their Experian Graph, giving them access to one of the more trusted and prominent cookieless IDs in the market today. Additionally, DSPs can use this identifier to decide whether to bid on certain inventory or not, on behalf of their advertiser partner. And, if we hedge our bets, it will only grow in prominence and use. While only available to approved DSPs today for use in the Experian Graph, the forthcoming encrypted UID2 token will provide this capability to the entire ecosystem, which allows us all to speak the same language and operate as efficiently as possible. "We are excited to support UID2, one of the premier IDs to support the future of addressability across the open internet, in the Experian Graph. We continue to see the adoption of UID2 across the demand-side ecosystem, increasing addressability across growing channels like CTV and beyond. I am personally excited to see how this momentum continues to increase over the remainder of 2023 and into 2024."chris feo, svp, sales & partnerships, experian Future-proof your identity strategy with Experian Graph and UID2 We’ve seen the impact that cookies have had on digital advertising and marketing. With the impending third-party cookie deprecation, you will need to adopt alternative cookieless ID solutions such as Unified ID 2.0. Experian is well-positioned to help you navigate this change, offering UID2 support in our Graph outputs for all approved partners by December 2023.

Before you determine your 2023 and 2024 data collaboration options, it’s essential to understand what data collaboration is. In short, it involves sharing and combining data from multiple sources to better understand a customer base and make informed marketing decisions. Read on to learn more about our three-step plan to create new data collaboration strategies, how it’s evolving, and what we do to ensure our solutions help maintain your company’s data privacy. How data collaboration is evolving from 2023 to 2024 Data collaboration strategies continually evolve thanks to changing industry dynamics and new technologies. As we move from 2023 to 2024, we’ll likely see collaboration extending outside businesses, meaning data can be shared with external partnerships in the form of a data ecosystem. A data ecosystem is a platform that combines numerous information points, including packages, algorithms, and cloud-computing services, to allow businesses to store, analyze, and use the data they’ve collected. To ensure you’re ready for 2024 data collaboration, you’ll need to take a forward-thinking approach toward new data strategies.

To measure your success, you should set short- and long-term goals surrounding data collaboration in 2023 and 2024. Maximize the value of your data One of the most important reasons to gather data is to discover in-depth insights into your audience and the effectiveness of your marketing efforts. You’ll be able to identify hidden patterns and pinpoint trends you may not have noticed before. With this information, you can make more strategic marketing decisions to stay competitive in your industry. Resolve digital identities Collaborating on data with trusted partners can help you gain a more complete view of your customers by building comprehensive digital profiles. Resolving digital identities can provide greater insight into online and offline behavior of individual consumers, allowing you to better connect with your target audience and boost brand loyalty.

By collaborating on data, you can gather essential insights without relying on cookies. This means you’ll still get the information you want while complying with privacy regulations.

We are excited to announce that we’ve updated our CAPE data with 2020 Census data. This release updates estimates and projections from 2010 and replaces all previous CAPE data attributes. U.S. Census data offers a great opportunity for data enrichment The U.S. Census is conducted every 10 years to determine the number of people living in the U.S. in addition to collecting data on dozens of topics across 130+ surveys and programs. U.S. Census data is already broken out into regional groups and covers 100k+ different geographies: States, counties, places, tribal areas, zip codes, and congressional districts. Block groups are the smallest geographic area for which the Bureau of the Census collects and tabulates data. They are formed by streets, roads, railroads, streams, other bodies of water, and other visible physical and cultural features. What is CAPE? Census Area Projections & Estimates data (CAPE) data from Experian utilizes a proprietary methodology to make the data easy to action on for marketing use cases. Made from U.S Census and Experian consumer data, CAPE data sets are developed at the block group and zip code level and targetable at the household level. CAPE 2020 updates CAPE 2020 uses the 2020 Census data blended with other Experian data to update CAPE’s unique attributes for data enrichment and licensing. Multiple sources are used and data is delivered at a block group level or zip code. Experian provides unique CAPE attributes not available through other sources that provide Census data. These include our Ratio and Percentages attributes, Score Factors/Segments, and Mosaic. CAPE 2020 use cases Our CAPE 2020 data sets enable strategic marketing analysis and decision-making. You can use CAPE 2020 data to understand the differences in the markets you serve as they relate to core demographics, housing attributes, education, income, employment, spending, and more. You can do this to: Find populations that are not typically captured in standard demographics. Cross-reference Census demographics data with other behavioral and shopper data. Understand supply and demand for products sold.
