The company's solution integrates data from multiple hospital
information systems to generate actionable insights enabling
clinicians to improve efficiency, resource optimization and
hospital capacity.
SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
Feb. 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Based on
its recent analysis of the global healthcare command center market,
Frost & Sullivan recognizes GE Healthcare with the 2020
Global Company of the Year Award. GE Healthcare enables customers
to develop virtual or physical command centers that support single
departments, hospitals, health systems, and even states or regions.
While competitors typically leverage their own solutions as the
core of their offering, GE Healthcare works with hospitals'
existing technology solutions and source systems, integrating and
analyzing data from all of them to drive greater efficiencies, as
well as additional outcomes.
"Leveraging state-of-the-art analytics, AI, and digital twin
technologies, GE Healthcare-installed command centers achieve a
return on investment in just up to 18 to 24 months and increase
capacity by up to 15 to 30 beds, without the need for additional
physical beds. It offers a variety of partnership roles and pricing
models to expand access to its exceptional services," said
Siddharth Shah, Program Manager at
Frost & Sullivan." Over 11 physical command centers, 210
hospitals with the command center software, spread over 6 countries
are experiencing the benefits of GE's solution that encompasses
about 30 real-time apps or 'Tiles'."
The company's command center team ensures optimum value for
clients through transformation partnerships to re-engineer
processes; real-time decision support partnerships to achieve the
desired impact using several command center apps (Tiles); and
capacity strategy partnerships to help them efficiently develop a
plan to reallocate capacity. Additionally, the virtual command
center offering is a valued capability in a post-pandemic world, as
it ensures both social distancing and significant cost savings by
providing many of the benefits of a command center without the need
for a physical space.
GE Healthcare has pioneered a unique data aggregator approach to
command centers; specifically, it can leverage hospitals' existing
technology solutions to gather and connect data, thus breaking
existing hospital silos and aiding real-time decision making. In
addition, the company incorporates advanced technologies, such as
predictive analytics, AI, natural language processing, computer
vision, and machine learning, in its apps (Tiles) to offer
capabilities such as forecasting census.
Our goal with Command Center is to put actionable insights at
each caregiver's fingertips. As we move towards data-driven,
intelligence-based healthcare, this is an important aspect of GE
Healthcare's vision, underpinned by our Edison Intelligence
platform. We're grateful to our customers for the opportunity to
partner with them to continue developing these patient-centric
applications," said Amit Phadnis,
Chief Digital Officer.
"GE Healthcare's sophisticated digital twin solution is another
important differentiator with its powerful simulation capability,
which helps hospitals test scenarios in a virtual environment to
assess the impact before introducing changes in the real world. It
offers hospitals guidance in optimizing the physical design of the
command center and can also provide the requisite video-wall
infrastructure with third-party vendors' support," noted
Shah. "Frost & Sullivan applauds GE Healthcare's efforts
to not only support clients' requirements but foster a robust
ecosystem that enables cross-customer collaboration and sharing of
best practices."
