  1. In November, Boston-based Mass General Brigham announced that it would be partnering with Best Buy to use the retail giants’ technology to provide care-at-home.
  2. Peoria, Ill.-based OSF HealthCare said that its 2019 partnership with Best Buy subsidiary Current Health lowered costs and lessened emergency room visits.
  3. In September, Danville, Pa.-based Geisinger expanded its at-home health partnership to focus on treating patients with chronic conditions.
  4. In March, Best Buy announced that it was partnering with New York City-based Mount Sinai Health System on remote patient monitoring. 
  5. In March, Best Buy inked a remote patient monitoring-focused deal with New York City-based NYU Langone Health. 

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.
