US-based healthcare technology companies Avidex and Artisight have partnered to provide a virtual care solution for hospitals.
The partnership will combine Avidex’s proprietary TigrPX interactive patient engagement system with Artisight’s virtual care platform.
Avidex will offer audio-visual hardware installation support and serve as the in-room technology integrator for this purpose.
Once integrated with TigrPX, the Artisight smart hospital platform will be able to use in-room televisions to deliver virtual care for patients.
The integrated solution will be offered to Avidex and Artisight’s new and existing client hospitals and health systems.
It is intended to allow patients and staff access to an enhanced virtual care experience.
Artisight CEO and co-founder Andrew Gostine said: "We believe that the synergy between Avidex and Artisight will create a transformative impact on patient care and healthcare delivery.
“By combining Avidex’s audio-visual expertise and its TigrPX patient engagement solution with Artisight’s advanced AI-driven smart hospital platform, we are poised to offer healthcare facilities a comprehensive virtual patient care solution that significantly improves patient care, satisfaction, and hospital efficiency.”
Artisight described the partnership as a 'significant step' towards the implementation of inpatient virtual care as a sustainable care delivery model.
The company said this will allow hospitals to create a safer care environment and bolster care coordination.
Avidex's TigrPX system is designed to deliver patient-centric engagement tools to hospitals for managing staff-patient communication and automated staff workflows with EMR/hospital system integrations.
Avidex CEO Jeff Davis said: "Avidex is excited to collaborate with Artisight to deliver a combined solution that offers critical benefits to US hospitals facing staff shortages.
“Our partnership connects the power of Artisight's advanced smart hospital platform with Avidex's proven TigrPX interactive patient care solution and audiovisual integration capabilities to deliver unparalleled value to our shared clients.
“Together, we will continue to enhance the patient experience and improve healthcare outcomes.”
