Based on a survey of 100 hospital leaders, The Digital Health Tipping Point report reveals key insights into their experience with various types of digital health solutions and what they plan to implement in 2024

ATLANTA, December 13, 2023 — Panda Health, a digital health intelligence platform and marketplace that connects hospitals and digital health companies, has released a new industry report featuring data points and insights that were gathered with one overarching objective: To help hospital and health system leaders make more informed, more effective, and more impactful digital health solution decisions.  

As hospital and health system leaders face growing pressure to drive digital transformation within their organizations, The Digital Health Tipping Point can help them determine the right path. Based on an independent survey of 100 hospital and health system leaders conducted in September 2023 by health care consultancy Sage Growth Partners, the report provides insights and perspectives directly from hospital leaders on: 

  • Solutions that produce the highest ROI 
  • Solutions that drive the most satisfaction   
  • Solutions that will have the most positive future impact  
  • Solutions that are most over- and under-valued  
  • Solutions likely to experience the most growth in adoption in 2024   

“The current state of the healthcare industry has raised the stakes on hospital and health system leaders to ensure they are investing their limited resources in the most effective way possible”, said Ryan Bengtson, MHSA, President and COO, Panda Health.  “A digitally enabled approach holds the most promise for addressing healthcare’s biggest challenges, and for those looking to lead the charge, true market intelligence—like that outlined in this new report—is critical to support a winning strategy.” 

Among the report’s key findings: 

  • Survey respondents indicated that Cybersecurity (84%) and Telemedicine (80%) are among the most commonly adopted solutions; whereas Virtual Nursing (13%) and Autonomous Medical Coding (11%) are the least adopted. 
  • Those surveyed said that Remote Patient Monitoring (86%) will have the most positive future impact on hospitals. 
  • It was found that Hospital at Home (40%) and Digital Care Navigators/Chatbots (42%) were solutions that had the lowest satisfaction rates among current users. 
  • Self-service patient scheduling was said to have the highest ROI by 76% of those surveyed.

“As hospital and health system leaders work to evaluate the ever-increasing amount of digital health categories and solutions in the year ahead, Panda Health can help with analysis and insights that are backed by thousands of data points and an unmatched team of digital health advisors. Our company was created by hospitals, for hospitals, which is why we make it easier to connect with, explore, and adopt leading digital health technologies,” said Bengtson.
