Trends such as telehealth, homecare, remote working, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and AI require a digital, future-oriented and secure foundation. Yet, healthcare organizations need to decide how and for which use cases cloud services can ideally be used based on local regulations, ease of migration, disaster recovery options, and degree of automation.

How Healthcare Is More Securely Delivering Better Patient Experiences [EDG1965]
Learn how healthcare organizations are delivering value-based care and enabling the best patient experiences leveraging VMware SASE. The pandemic accelerated remote work for healthcare workers to maintain their safety. Virtual care became the preferred way of engaging with patients to deliver care. All of this must be done securely while ensuring the privacy of protected health information and HIPAA compliance. Benchmarking and reporting on patient outcomes and care quality necessitates unprecedented health data and analytics, and heightened visibility into the patient journey. Patients are beginning to demand more from their medical providers, and the network infrastructure is critical to delivering a collaborative environment for healthcare workers and the best patient experiences, all while enabling security and compliance.
