For instance, patients in one short-stay unit experienced fewer adverse events compared to those admitted to inpatient units. And at the end of the day, fewer days in the hospital reduces risks for hospital-acquired conditions. Rachel Thompson, MD, SFHM, FACP, CMO of Core Clinical Partners – an ACHE Premier Corporate Partner – explains how embracing this model could be a key driver for hospitals aiming to improve both patient care and operational flow.

➡️ At the Mayo Clinic, it was time to replace a quarter-century-old 3-D image viewing system. For both UChicago Medicine and Piedmont, the era of nose-in-keyboard provider stenography gave way to AI-generated appointment notes. In all three cases, these health systems worked to engage providers in high-impact clinical technology decision-making processes, marrying their subject matter knowledge and experience as end users with the technical-heavy assessments and highly detailed systems requirements that information technology professionals are best equipped to handle.
