EDITORIAL
Technology Reshapes How Care Moves and Heals
The evolution of emergency air transport shows how healthcare is becoming faster, wiser and more responsive without fanfare. Drones now reach accident scenes before helicopters, capturing images and gathering early vital signs that crews can access in seconds. Flight teams receive real-time guidance from remote physicians in the air, while AI-powered navigation adjusts routes to avoid bad weather and traffic delays with no downtime.
Similar improvements are reshaping care on the ground. In dental and oral surgery clinics, digital systems manage routine tasks like scheduling, inventory and patient records, freeing more time for direct care. At the same time, AI is changing how providers plan and deliver treatment. Dentists can map out procedures in advance, simulate likely outcomes and explain each step clearly to patients, building trust and confidence.
A new style of healthcare consulting is driving this progress. Today’s firms take a proactive, tech-focused role, working closely with providers to build secure and adaptable systems. They use machine learning to flag compliance risks early and design safeguards that keep operations resilient. With data security and shifting regulations at the heart of healthcare operations, these consultants guide strategy and help organizations stay prepared for change.
Market forecasts reflect this shift toward more competent care. The healthcare IT services sector is expected to grow at an annual rate of 13.2 percent from 2023 to 2030, driven by digital tools, telehealth and AI-based solutions. The broader healthcare technology market is moving even faster, with growth projected at 18.7 percent annually from 2024 to 2028.
All signs point in the same direction: healthcare is becoming more connected, more intelligent and better able to respond to patients’ needs when needed.
The magazine features a thought leadership piece by Jarrid Pike, MSEM, Director of Emergency Management and Preparedness at UMass Memorial Medical Center, who explains medical transportation’s vital role in effective emergency management. It also includes insights from Jarrid Pike, MSEM, Director of Emergency Management and Preparedness at UMass Memorial Medical who discusses how patient transport supports medical teams, enhances the patient experience and keeps hospital operations running smoothly.
