Fisher-Titus Recognized in 2022 Digital Health Most Wired Survey

The College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME), has released their coveted Digital Health Most Wired Survey results for the 2022 data collection period. Fisher-Titus is proud to announce their Level 7 achievement for the Acute survey selection. They are the only hospital in the region to receive this recognition.

“We are honored to be recognized by CHIME as a Digital Health Most Wired organization,” said Dr. Brent Burkey, president & CEO of Fisher-Titus. “Our teams work hard to find and implement state-of-the-art technologies that improve the health care experience for our patients and our employees. We are proud to be among some exceptional facilities across the country recognized in this year’s survey.”

Among the more than 38,000 organizations surveyed by CHIME, Fisher-Titus ranked above peers in categories like analytics and data management, population health, infrastructure, and patient engagement. The survey assessed the adoption, integration, and impact of technologies in health care organizations at all stages of development, from early development to industry leading.

“We are proud to honor Fisher-Titus’ exceptional dedication to excellence in digital health,” said CHIME president and CEO Russell P. Branzell. “Your pioneering performance in the industry inspires other organizations by example. Patients in communities around the world receive better care when you drive change through digital transformation, as you have proven through your success in this rigorous program.”

The Digital Health Most Wired survey and recognition program serves as a comprehensive “Digital Health Check-up” for healthcare organizations across the world. As success in digital health increasingly determines the quality of patient care, the scope of the CHIME Digital Health Most Wired survey reflects the progress of leading healthcare providers as they reinvent healthcare for a new century.

The Level 7 Recognition Fisher-Titus received recognizes the technologies and strategies they have deployed that help them analyze their data and achieve meaningful clinical and efficiency outcomes. It also recognizes the steps Fisher-Titus is taking to advance the technologies they use to expand patients access to care.

In addition to the technologies they use internally to improve processes, manage patient information, and more, Fisher-Titus offers several digital services that make it easier for patients to care for their health.
