So basically more robots in hospitals? Cool I guess.
They say it’s about “equitable” care but I’m still waiting on basic appointments over here. Like will this actually speed anything up or is it just research buzzwords?
Philips makes those imaging machines right? If they’re “speeding research” does that mean cheaper scans or just faster bills? Also ACOs sound like insurance companies with a different name, not sure.
I read this and thought it said “merge” at first lol. If it’s an alliance for research, are they sharing patient data? Because I feel like every time they say innovation it’s really just collecting info and calling it care.
