Defining Smart Hospitals
As healthcare organizations grapple with the rapid adoption of cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), ambient sensing, virtual care, and patient monitoring, the need for a comprehensive framework to assess and guide their progress has become paramount. The Smart Hospital Maturity Model addresses this need by offering a methodical approach to evaluating hospitals' progress in understanding, adopting, and optimizing enabling technologies. By defining what constitutes a "Smart Hospital," this model empowers healthcare facilities to optimize and accelerate digital transformation with clarity and confidence.
"In an era where the pace of technological innovation outstrips many health systems' ability to adapt, the Smart Hospital Maturity Model isn't just a tool—it's a crucial lifeline for healthcare organizations striving to harness the power of digital transformation," said Russ Branzell, President and Chief Executive Officer of CHIME. "CHIME's collaboration with care.ai on this initiative underscores a commitment to not only navigate but lead in the uncharted waters of modern healthcare transformation. The development of the Smart Hospital Maturity Model is a testament to the evolving landscape of the healthcare industry and the need to strengthen market research. The insights and benchmarks provided by the Smart Hospital Maturity Model will complement and enhance the strategic roadmap offered by the Digital Health Most Wired Program, ensuring that healthcare providers have access to a comprehensive framework for digital transformation," said Branzell. "By aligning these initiatives, CHIME continues to lead the way in setting industry standards and empowering healthcare organizations to achieve excellence in digital health."
Key Objectives of the Smart Hospital Maturity Model
Clarity and Direction: The model provides a compelling roadmap for hospitals, informing where they stand in their digital transformation journey and where they aspire to be.
Comparative Analyses: Facilities that complete the assessment tool will receive comparative analyses, benchmarking their progress against industry standards and best practices.
Industry Expert Input: To ensure objectivity and credibility, the development of the model will be guided by an advisory panel of health system industry experts (named below) and led by Steve Lieber, former Executive Vice President and Chief Analytics Officer at CHIME. In this role, Lieber significantly contributed to the growth of the renowned Digital Health Most Wired Program and launched CHIME's Digital Health Analytics Program. He also served as the CEO of HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society), where he provided leadership to develop the Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model (EMRAM). Their collective expertise will shape the assessment criteria, questionnaires, and data measurement methods for the Smart Hospital Maturity Model."
Recognition and Strategic Insights: The Smart Hospital Maturity Model not only recognizes hospitals' accomplishments but also provides strategic insights for future steps. It enables organizations to identify areas for improvement and prioritize their efforts effectively.
"care.ai was founded in 2018 with the pioneering vision of creating a smart care facility platform.  Now, years later, the need for smart hospitals and the availability of impactful technology has never been greater, said Chakri Toleti, Founder and CEO of care.ai.  "We are excited to embark on this partnership with CHIME and honored to have such a visionary panel of advisors collaborating with us to maximize the impact and value of the model we will deliver for the industry."
