The hospital did very well in enabling interoperability while it proved to be excellent in the areas of person-enabled health, predictive analytics, and governance and workforce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">CMUH attributes this achievement to its development and implementation of three smart platforms that have led to clinical practice improvements. One of them is the AI-powered <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthcareitnews.com\/news\/asia\/using-ai-fight-drug-resistant-infections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Intelligent Anti-Microbial System<\/a>, which helps with the early and rapid detection of a causative bacterial strain. Since applying this technology, it has reduced its near-miss rate in antibiotic prescriptions from 12.1% to 0%.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">The hospital also credits its two other platforms, the Remote Myocardial Infarction Diagnostic System and the Integrated Smart ARDS Lifesaver, to its high DHI ranking.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">HIMSS also commended the hospital for its patient-centric services, including its smart wards which have realised efficiency in patient management using a single monitor and the CMUH mobile app that streamlines patient admission and enables remote care monitoring.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">WHY IT MATTERS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">CMUH&#8217;s objective is to measure its digital health capability against global standards and identify areas for improvement. The hospital views its DHI score as an opportunity to partner with HIMSS and other leading global health systems to drive its digital transformation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">In addition, CMUH seeks opportunities to enhance its digital health ecosystem and gather support in making the right investment decisions by identifying priority areas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">&#8220;We decided to go through the DHI assessment as we are convinced that the scores and ranking of smart hospitals by HIMSS will be objective and unbiased,&#8221; said CMUH\u00a0superintendent Professor Der-Yang Cho.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">THE LARGER TREND<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">A data-driven care model underpins CMUH&#8217;s digital transformation. Since introducing 5G across its network, it has been able to collect data from wearable devices via the cloud, enabling remote healthcare. It was also able to streamline its workflow and provide personalised healthcare.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">In 2019, CMUH obtained Stage 7 accreditation for the HIMSS Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model, which has been a major contributor to its present DHI ranking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6b9164b3-7fff-8402-8e61-f6f90445b926\">The hospital has now positioned itself among the class of top global health systems \u2013 all coming from the Asia-Pacific \u2013 that have achieved high scores in the DHI.
