Technological Advances Accelerates Hospital-at-Home Adoption Across Healthcare Industry
In recent years, Hospital-at-Home (HaH) programs have been accepted more widely as a way of providing acute-level care to patients at home. These programs are gaining traction worldwide because they offer solutions to challenges seen in traditional hospitals, such as capacity constraints, increasing expenses, and efforts to improve patient experiences and outcomes.While the concept of providing acute care services at home is not entirely new, recent advancements in medical technologies, coupled with evolving healthcare policies and shifting patient preferences, are propelling the expansion of HaH solutions.Home health technologies like remote patient monitoring (RPM) and telemedicine have significantly improved access to care and have been instrumental in supporting HaH programs.
