OREANDA-NEWS.   In an effort to help healthcare providers improve operational efficiency in the midst of a changing regulatory environment, industry consolidation and evolving patient populations, GE Healthcare, a division of General Electric Company (NYSE: GE), today showcased a suite of new and enhanced offerings at the AAMI Annual Conference & Expo in Philadelphia.

The offerings are designed to address some of healthcare providers’ most pressing operational challenges: infrastructure connectivity, getting the right service parts as quickly as possible, avoiding ultrasound downtime related to damaged probes, and synthesizing data to help them optimize their assets.

“With operating margin pressure, clearly it’s not business as usual for health systems and providers,” said Richard Neff, Vice President & General Manager of GE Healthcare Services, US & Canada. “We believe better business performance leads to better healthcare delivery, and we can help. Our new and enhanced offerings are designed to improve operations, and ultimately enable better patient care.”

“These offerings align with GE’s Industrial Internet strategy to use the power of software, data and analytics to address today’s health care challenges, and increase speed and efficiency to benefit both hospitals and patients,” Neff added.
