Technology has both advantages and pitfalls, even in the healthcare industry. HealthMaker Brad Perkins, MD, an excutive with Vanguard, explains why continuing technological development is important in this video.
There is some fabulous uses of technology, and I think there is some questionable uses of technology. I think that that's fine. I think the important thing is to keep innovating and keep moving forward to find things that allow us to simultaneously improve the health of populations at scale, improve the care that people need when they do become ill or sick, and to do that at a constantly lower cost point.
Brad Perkins, MD, is chief transformation officer for Vanguard Health Systems. Vanguard Health Systems owns and operates 28 acute care and specialty hospitals and complementary facilities and services across the country.
