Hackensack Meridian taps AI to extend older adult care beyond hospital walls

Edison, N.J.-based Hackensack Meridian Health is expanding its older adult care strategy through a new partnership with Cadence, a remote care technology company that uses artificial intelligence to monitor patients’ health outside the hospital.

The initiative aims to help older adults manage chronic conditions at home by using connected devices that track blood pressure, heart rate, weight and blood glucose levels. Cadence’s AI platform reviews patient data in real time and alerts a 24/7 clinical team when intervention may be needed, according to an Oct. 21 news release Hackensack Meridian shared with Becker’s.

The program, which is already monitoring more than 1,000 patients, functions as an extension of the health system’s clinical operations. Cadence’s team oversees daily monitoring and patient follow-up, surfacing only the most urgent cases to Hackensack Meridian Health providers.

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.
