The hospital, scheduled to open at the end of this year, will have a smart interactive footwall monitor that will allow patients to view their own medical information. Valley Health is aiming for the Meditech partnership to eliminate data duplication, according to a March 8 Meditech news release.

“In our smart hospital, each room will be equipped with monitors that go beyond standard entertainment options. Patients will be able to see key clinical information and complete questionnaires and surveys from their beds,” Valley Health CIO Eric Carey said in the release. “Using a companion tablet, patients will be able to video conference with family members.”

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.
