To meet growing demand, New York Medical Group (NYMG) is shifting towards using data to provide predictive and proactive care to patients.
NEW YORK, NY, February 27, 2022 Senmer News Wire — Doctors of Chiropractic have long been known for being on the leading edge of holistic wellness. However, Chiropractors have not always been on the forefront in the adoption of new technology or marketing methods – until now. New York Medical Group incorporated innovative technologies into their design and operations to improve the patient journey, treatment outcomes, and operational costs. The smart clinics with the latest technology are incorporating Artificial Intelligence tools into their system with amazing results.
This AI technology may have arrived just in time. According to a study of New York Medical Group by Dr. Ho, published in the Asia Pacific Chiropractic Journal (1). “It is now an innovation age driving the extraordinary breakthroughs in patient journey, and making preventative decisions. The utilization of these technologies is heavily dependent on the clinician’s mindset, including cost control, efficiency optimization, and patient outcomes.” Dr V Ho described.
“You can imagine if you’re an inpatient and you have an itinerary that says, chiropractor will be by at 2 o’clock, physiotherapy will be by at 2:30, you will go for your x-ray at 3 o’clock,’ that’s pretty nice to be able to know when things are happening,” Dr Ho.
Many clinical studies had shown that bad posture can cause injury and twist your spine, and make you pain in the neck (2-10), headache (11-14), dizziness (15-17), numbness (18-20), stomach problems (21-23), scoliosis (24-27), and back pain (28-41). When chiropractors are primarily trained to use their hands (42), patient expectations can be ignored regarding the application of new medical technologies.
Built with innovations in health technology, and the patient in mind, this newest rehabilitation boasts numerous in-room education options, complete with pillow speakers and patient-operated controls.
“On the television, patients can watch their youtuber describing the disease, access educational materials, and learn more about their own medical records or care team.” Dr Ho explained to the reporters on the research finding.
And from a family engagement standpoint, a smart rehabilitation clinic like NYMG is connecting caregivers with more information about patient health and real-time updates about health status and procedures. This helps family members learn more about their loved ones’ health and know where they are on the care journey.
While NYMG clinics require advanced information technology, becoming a smart clinic is not an information technology project. Rather, it is a holistic, deeply ingrained, system-wide approach that involves all staff members, including clinicians, nurses, clinic managers, and investors. Continuous, transparent communication is also necessary to ensure that possible problems are identified quickly, and viable solutions are immediately found, designed, piloted, and implemented. In this manner, clinical processes, quality of treatment, and patient experience continue to improve, while expenses remain manageable.
By 2025, Asia will be home to 456 million seniors, representing 10 percent of its population. Patients are demanding access to convenient healthcare and better safety (43-45). It is now an innovation age driving the extraordinary breakthroughs in patient care, helping the patient journey, and making preventative decisions. Smart rehabilitation clinics in the future will resemble neither today’s nor yesterday’s clinics. Smart clinics will drive a better vision, owning a clear roadmap, utilizing innovative diagnoses and treatments, and interacting with a larger ecosystem to efficiently supply other care services.
