Hallym University has designed an application that allows rural physicians to upload data from patients with intracranial hemorrhage and consult with a university neurosurgeon, according to an Oct. 1 news release from UMass Chan. As part of the collaboration’s first phase, UMass Chan will test the platform on existing patient data, the release said. 

“Hallym University is a leader in digital health and AI, and this partnership will lead to accelerating our research in digital medicine,” Jeroan Allison, MD, chair and professor of population and quantitative health sciences at the medical school, said in the release. “It will lead to further funding opportunities, and it will position us on the international stage of AI research.”

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.
