Smart Hospital Maturity Model
Hospitals are transforming to be more efficient, patient-centric, and tech-integrated. The Smart Hospital Maturity Model (SHMM), supported by care.ai and CHIME, offers a framework to assess and advance healthcare institutions’ digital transformation toward “smart” status.
The Model
The model is designed around the three primary components of healthcare: people, places and processes. One, the model looks at how patients and their care circles as well as clinical and support teams utilize smart technology during care.
The path for a health care delivery organization to an environment that fully embraces the tools and processes of intelligence-assisted care is not a fixed one. Each organization has variables that influence the speed and direction of its journey—existing infrastructure, culture, budget, leadership, and many other factors.
