Meanwhile, improving clinical efficiencies was named the biggest digital health benefit, whereas patient engagement took the top spot in last year’s survey, according to the Jan. 22 report from management consultant Sage Growth Partners.

Here are the top five digital health priorities for the next 12 months, per the survey of 108 hospital and health system C-suite executives:

1. Care coordination: 67%

2. Telehealth: 53%

3. Remote patient monitoring: 50%

4. Patient self-scheduling: 46%

5. Revenue cycle solutions: 44%

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.
