We asked area physicians and health executives how technology has improved their patient care over the past few years. Here are their responses.
“There is no question that technology has helped to speed the acquisition of clinical information such as radiological images and laboratory results. It has also improved the ability of health care professionals to communicate and relay ongoing patient evaluations and treatment plans. Advances in equipment, such as innovative robot-assisted therapy equipment and computer-based programs, help us provide evidence-based care to improve patient outcomes.”
