Tampa General Hospital CEO: “We don’t do pilots"

Tampa General Hospital prefers streamlining tech, not pilot-testing startup tools; collaborates with GE HealthCare to improve care routines. Rather than piloting, the hospital scales or eliminates tech. Their joint project with GE, the Command Center, began small and expanded based on patient care improvements. The hospital also isn't averse to abandoning unsuccessful projects. The partnership differs from those like venture firm General Catalyst's strategy to buy health systems. Tampa General is a research and academic medical center employing 8,000.
