GE HealthCare and non-profit health system Ascension have partnered to improve clinical and operational outcomes within the latter鈥檚 national network.
This partnership is set to enhance access and experience of patients, aligning with Ascension’s mission to serve everyone, particularly the vulnerable and poor.
It will utilise GE HealthCare’s portfolio of technologies across various modalities, including magnetic resonance (MR), nuclear medicine, computed tomography (CT), X-ray, and ultrasound, in areas such as general imaging, cardiovascular, women鈥檚 health, and point of care.
The alliance is expected to offer access to the latest imaging technology, potentially reducing scan times, wait times for care, and improving diagnostic accuracy.
This agreement signifies a continuation of the longstanding connection between Ascension Health and GE HealthCare.
Both organisations aim to explore further opportunities to progress patient care and access, especially in the main markets.
