The center will research capacity constraints that could affect hospital’s ability to care for all patients quickly and equally. 

The pandemic has had a major impact on patient volume, but the health system expects high numbers even if COVID-19 cases decrease, according to Vanderbilt Health. 

Vanderbilt Health is currently the only provider of highly specialized adult and pediatric clinical services within its region.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
