WellCent offers a platform to equip patients and caregivers with validated medical devices and resources for home care.

“With the increase in care shifting to the home setting, WellCent is prepared to be a key part of bringing families and providers together through smart homes and digitally-enabled care,” Ashish Atreja, MD, CIO and chief digital health officer at UC Davis Health, said in a Jan. 9 health system news release.

UC Davis’ Digital Collaborative for Innovation and Validation, or Digital CoLab, focuses on artificial intelligence and digital health. Through the initiative, UC Davis Health has also started an AI program for medical documentation and partnered with venture capital firm General Catalyst on digital innovation.

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.
