Malnutrition is a common, complicated, and costly problem for hospitals. In the US, one in three patients admitted to the hospital has malnutrition — but <9% are diagnosed. Junum provides the tools needed to accurately diagnose malnutrition within your existing EHR workflows and improve revenue capture accordingly. 

The MalnutritionCDS™ solution is clinician-driven technology that integrates right into hospitals' existing EHR (Epic or Cerner) workflows and provides the tools needed for various clinical stakeholders to accurately chart, diagnose, and treat patients.This software allows physicians to quickly and accurately identify and treat malnourished patients and improves clinical workflows, saves physicians time, and drives hospital revenue. Our SMART on FHIR app integrates seamlessly into existing EHR workflows, giving clinicians easy access to the nutrition insights and evidence based guidelines they need to drive improved outcomes.

Edamam structures and organizes food and nutrition data and sells it to businesses in the food, health and wellness sectors, helping build applications for food logging, personalized meal recommendations, and nutrition data lookup. The company sells subscriptions to the data via API or as licensed datasets.

Clients include Nestle, Amazon, Food Network, New York Times, Microsoft, Barilla, Virta Health, FoodSmart, and many more. Edamam also has close to 100,000 developers signed up to its APIs.

Edamam has built the largest and deepest dataset of food and nutrition data in the world with over 5 million recipes and 1 million foods, analyzed and tagged for 150+ nutrients, 40+ diets including all allergens, and 200+ chronic conditions, as well as cuisine, meal type, dish type, CO2 impact, glycemic index, etc.

Junum specializes in nutrition informatics and workflows. Why spend 5 years of internal IT resources building and iterating, when Junum can integrate quickly and generate a high ROI without overburdening your team. Junum encourages better nutritional care and helps drive additional hospital revenue by integrating directly with EHRs so providers can incorporate nutrition management at the point of care.

Junum is the only company focused on nutrition decision support for physicians and the entire care team.

Our technology integrates directly into clinician workflows in Cerner and Epic to save time and improve provider satisfaction. Our superpower is that clinicians love our tools. Junum is a team of engineers and product enthusiasts working to transform the nutrition care management space by enabling health systems to compliantly track and provide reimbursable care to patients. 

Edamam offers breadth, depth and accuracy of food and nutrition data that are not available and are expensive to build internally. Because of the breadth and depth, Edamam can offer significant granularity in creating meal personalization, which is hard to achieve with the few meals tagged for a few diets or nutrients normally found internally.

Edamam stands out from the competition in three areas:

• Breadth of data -- over 5 million recipes and 1 million foods
• Depth of Data -- each food and meal are analyzed and tagged for 170 nutrients, all allergens, 40+ diets and 200+ chronic conditions, as well as meal type, dish, type, cuisine, immunity response, glycemic index, etc.
• Accuracy -- Edamam's accuaracy matches that of an experienced human nutritionist

Some Edamam competitors have breadth, but no depth and accuracy, others offer accuracy but at a very high price point and no breadth.
