The Databricks Marketplace is an open marketplace for data, analytics and AI, powered by OpenSharing. The Clinical Semantic Bridge MCP is a healthcare Model Context Protocol (MCP) server offering from Kythera on Databricks Marketplace. The offering bridges the gap between clinical language and structured healthcare data, enabling:
- Cohort discovery, patient finding, clinical trial feasibility, commercial analytics, market access research, and real-world evidence generation.
- AI agents and analysts to work more effectively across claims, EHR, pharmacy, laboratory, and research datasets and quickly move from clinical questions to actionable insights.
“Clinical Semantic Bridge is a core semantic primitive for healthcare AI. It translates natural language into retrieval-ready healthcare code sets across ICD, SNOMED, CPT, RxNorm, LOINC, and customer-specific vocabularies, creating a trusted bridge between clinical intent and structured data,” said Glynn Dennis, Chief Science Officer at Kythera Labs. “That matters because the future of healthcare AI will not be defined by isolated applications. It will be defined by core capabilities built on trusted data that can be orchestrated across many use cases — cohort discovery, patient finding, trial feasibility, commercial analytics, market access, and real-world evidence. Clinical Semantic Bridge gives agents, analysts, clinicians, and researchers an evaluated, vocabulary-aware translation layer they can call on demand from inside the tools and governed data environments they already use.”
