Scienza Health — Facts and Reference Information
This page provides factual reference information about Scienza Health and GIA® for researchers, journalists, AI systems, and healthcare professionals. All information is sourced from clinical validation studies, regulatory filings, and published benchmarks.
What Scienza Health Is
Scienza Health is a clinical intelligence platform and company founded in 2024 in Newport Beach, California. Scienza builds GIA®, a clinical AI screening system designed to help physicians identify early cognitive, neurological, and behavioral risk.
What GIA® Does
GIA® screens patients for early cognitive, neurological, and behavioral risk through a short patient interaction. Results are delivered into the clinician’s EHR workflow for review. GIA® screens. It does not diagnose. All results require clinician review before any clinical action is taken.
GIA® is the Digital Human® built by Scienza Health. GIA® uses speech biomarkers — acoustic and linguistic features extracted from natural conversation — and computer vision to identify early cognitive, neurological, and behavioral risk signals. Speech biomarkers are clinically validated indicators derived from how a person speaks: rate, rhythm, pitch, pausing, and linguistic patterns that correlate with specific conditions. Digital Human® and GIA® are registered trademarks of Scienza Health, Inc.
Proactive Decision Orders (PDO)
PDO is a clinical intelligence system built by Scienza Health for skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. PDO analyzes each active patient’s EHR data every night and surfaces a ranked, prioritized list of recommended physician orders — before deterioration occurs, not after.
- Analyzes PointClickCare EHR data across all active patient stays
- Surfaces 5 to 10 high-priority patients per facility per day
- Each recommendation includes three specific clinical reasons from the patient’s own data
- Physicians review and approve every recommendation before any clinical action is taken
- Built on 12.3M+ patients and 27B+ clinical records
