HTO Robot Nurse Will Robots Replace Healthcare Providers?

Automation has been making human workers superfluous for centuries, but until recently, workers whose jobs required high-level cognitive skills have been able to rest easy, confident no machine could possibly replace them when it came to making nuanced decisions based on the evaluation of complicated, sometimes contradictory data. By Khal Rai, Senior Vice President, Product Development & Operations, SRS Health

  • Why Healthcare Needs Private Optical Networks
    5/14/2019

    For at least the past 10 years, healthcare providers have invested in tools that utilize computing and information technology to better control patient outcomes. Several large hospital systems in the U.S. have reported meaningful improvements in metrics such as length of inpatient hospital stays, need for post-operative antibiotics and 30-day re-admissions. These positive outcomes are credited to the increased use of predictive analytics that model patient scenarios as part of a real-time connected healthcare system (RTHS). A cornerstone of the RTHS is connectivity among patients, healthcare providers as well as devices and systems that generate, process and store real-time data.

Here are some things to look out for in the coming year.

  • Serving The American Healthcare Revolution
    12/21/2015

    In my ritual of year-end reflection, I am struck by an unshakeable parallel between the general healthcare climate today, and the atmosphere surrounding the late stages of the American Revolution and the start of our fledgling nation.
