Amazon Web Services will offer its Digital Health services to the Mexican Hospital Consortium.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is one of the world's leading providers of cloud-based digital services. As a result of the growth in the adoption of digital tools in health, the American company created Amazon Comprehend Medical, a tool for the analysis of patient information and the exchange of data between institutions. In other words, a system that favors interoperability between hospitals and health systems.
Likewise, Amazon Comprehend Medical incorporates technology based on Artificial Intelligence for the analysis of patient medical records. This facilitates the processes for service providers, pharmaceutical companies and medical researchers.
Recently, AWS formed an alliance with the Mexican Hospital Consortium, which has 51 hospitals in 23 states in the country. The objective of this agreement is to facilitate access to this type of tool for doctors, hospitals and hospital systems in Mexico.
One of the main projects that will be developed through this alliance is "Hospital at Home", a pre-hospital care strategy that could start in August of this year.
Although it is a patient-centered care system, this AWS tool also seeks to constantly update and train medical professionals in terms of their digital skills.
