MetroHealth in Cleveland has taken significant strides to improve patient care by addressing the challenges of fragmented imaging data systems. Dr. David Kaelber, chief health informatics officer, highlighted the initiative's focus on making imaging data universally accessible to all stakeholders, including patients. To facilitate this, the health system has implemented a vendor-neutral archive and a universal viewer that consolidate imaging from various specialties into a single platform, allowing seamless access through electronic health records. Additionally, patients can now view their imaging results via the Epic MyChart portal, promoting transparency and encouraging active engagement in their healthcare.

The emergence of DeepSeek, an open-source large language model from a China-based hedge fund, poses a challenge to established AI companies like OpenAI by utilizing an innovative approach known as "sparsity." Researchers at Apple, led by Samir Abnar, have found that by selectively activating only certain parameters within the neural network, DeepSeek can function with lower computational demands while achieving competitive performance levels. Their study indicates that optimizing sparsity can enhance accuracy and reduce pretraining loss, suggesting a shift in the AI landscape that could empower smaller labs and researchers to develop effective models with fewer resources.

The City of Tampa has introduced the OnMed CareStation, a portable healthcare clinic, to enhance medical access for its homeless population in partnership with local organizations. Funded by Tampa General Hospital and The McNamara Foundation, this initiative allows individuals at Tampa Hope, the first US homeless shelter to feature such technology, to have real-time consultations with licensed clinicians via audio and video. This solution addresses transportation barriers and integrates healthcare with essential services for residents, while also aiming to serve as a model for similar programs in other cities.

Shakeeb Akhter, Chief Digital & Information Officer at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, acknowledged the significant achievements of his team during the Winter Celebration & Awards Townhall, marking three years of advancements in healthcare technology. The Digital Transformation Services (DTS) team was recognized for reducing operational incidents by 93% while increasing change volume by 33%, generating over $50 million in benefits. Additionally, customer experience improved with an 18.8% rise in first-call resolution, resulting in a net promoter score of 4.67 out of 5, and a 95th percentile satisfaction rating for electronic health record usability. Akhter also discussed the success of 12 remote patient management programs that enrolled over 9,000 patients and the introduction of AI-driven solutions to enhance care efficiency.
