Patient Engagement
Houston Methodist Hospital is using text messaging, voice technology and generative AI predictive analytics to drive patient-centered care.
The Data: Elemental to Health campaign has been focused on public health surveillance to facilitate an immediate response to health threats.
The technology, known as Bynahm, is designed to bridge the distance among hospitalized patients and their loved ones, using automation and VR to streamline communication and provide immersive experiences.
Also, Northeast Health Wangaratta has upgraded its EMR system.
The pre-conference event will offer sessions on patient engagement, the digital divide, SDOH, public health, climate and more. Matt Bishop of Open City Labs and Evelyn Gallego of EMI Advisors offer a preview.
Dr. Zafar Chaudry also discusses how the hospital first trains all staff on up-and-coming tools: Everyone takes an AI course.
Dr Apichai Chaiyaroj, assistant director of BNH Hospital, shares how they had all doctors entering inpatient and outpatient records electronically.
The Alliance for Connected Care has asked U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to intervene on proposed Drug Enforcement Agency e-prescribing rules, urging broader telehealth access.
The digital patient engagement program went from a one-hospital pilot to 125 locations in no time. A top digital leader discusses the project and her HIMSS25 session on the success.
The company will use the funds to grow its technology platform and open new clinics.
