What's the Future of Hospital at Home? 6 Innovation Execs Weigh in

Today, the patient journey now includes multiple avenues for receiving care at home, such as the ability to video chat with a clinician or be closely connected to clinical resources while recovering at home. Especially important is how digital service innovations allow easier access to care for those who may not be within driving distance of a healthcare facility.

What a hospital at home program can evolve to is an out-of-hospital environment — home or anywhere — where the rational deployment of technology (remote patient monitoring, including behavioral activation, artificial intelligence and prescriptive intelligence combined with the judicious intersection of human adjudication) will recognize when patients with complex medical conditions or who are immediately post-procedure show signs of deterioration far before they are traditionally symptomatic.
