The Applied Health Innovation Consortium (AHIC) is a unique and multi-disciplinary group, driving the thought leadership and evidence for application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital technology in a clinically meaningful way.

On October 27, 2021, AHIC held its second annual summit, which focused on the utility of digital tools for remote patient monitoring and addressed deploying these tools for both post-hospitalization and ambulatory care.

A key feature of this virtual summit was the open group discussions. Discussions were held in six individual breakout rooms where participants were pre-assigned to a group and asked to answer a series of questions developed by AHIC. The groups then reconvened collectively for report outs. The goal of these interactive discussions was to collaboratively determine success factors for remote patient monitoring and prioritize next steps around what guidance is needed to support the cardiovascular community as clinicians navigate how to perform remote patient monitoring and improve patient experience.
