Providing Solutions to Some of Hospital’s Toughest Problems
The healthcare industry, like many sectors of the global economy, is at a critical juncture. Hospitals face a heightened regulatory environment coupled with increasing capital and operating costs, staffing shortages and an aging population, ultimately raising capacity and financial issues. Delivering quality health care is more than just developing cutting edge medical equipment (although we pride ourselves on that!). It’s about delivering holistic solutions to some of hospitals’ toughest problems.
GE Healthcare’s Performance Solutions business provides hospitals and clinics the practical solutions they need to drive efficiencies and cost-savings. Most recently, GE Healthcare partnered with Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York City to install our AgileTrac system.
AgileTrac uses real-time technology to keep track of people and medical devices. The system gathers location data, which is fed into a system that produces next steps, status updates and notifications as patients and devices move through the facility.
My colleagues and I are developing a sophisticated “Hospital Operations Early Warning System” leveraging the real-time information from the AgileTrac system. Similar to a smart GPS system that warns drivers of upcoming traffic and suggests alternative routes, our sophisticated technology will help hospitals forecast potential bed or staff shortages before they occur and suggest actions that could mitigate these problems in advance. In this video, I discuss some of this innovative technology and how GE is working to develop “Hospitals of the Future” each and every day.
