Improving Healthcare Through Digital Transformation
1. Improving Healthcare
Through Digital
Transformation
Working closely with our partners, we have
helped our customers innovate, manage market
transitions and turn technology into real business
advantage.
We invite you to read the stories of forward-
thinking healthcare companies that are digitally
transforming the way they do business to
improve patient care and outcomes. These
companies are truly changing the way we work,
live, play and learn.

reduced travel time and costs, increased
access to external clinical and research
expertise, and improved efficiency and
collective value for the course of patient
treatment.
Objective:
Children’s Hospital of Orange County wanted to
connect leading pediatric oncologists in multiple
locations to improve care for children with rare
forms of cancer.
Cisco understands that everything can be connected. It’s not an idle claim, it’s
in their DNA.

were avoided and hundreds of children were
treated through the collaboration of these two
medical organizations. Ultimately, Children’s
National is able to provide more patients
with safe and cost-efficient care regardless
of location.
Objective:
Children’s National Medical Center wanted
to provide access to quality, cost-efficient
healthcare for people located in remote areas
around the globe.
The Internet of Everything creates new opportunities in the healthcare system
by allowing us to get information faster and more accurately and to be able to
share a large amount of information and provide patients with safer and more
cost-efficient care.

wireless technology designed to improve
process, patient experiences and safety with
connected devices. To service such a high
volume of wireless traffic, Houston Methodist
employed Cisco® Wireless Controller and more
than 3,000 Cisco Aironet® Access Points. To
control and manage both the wired and wireless
network, the hospital migrated its infrastructure
to the Integrated Cisco Prime™ Infrastructure.

They have more efficiently delivered
diagnostic images and treatment plans to
patients and families have improved wireless
user experiences and prolonged battery for
client devices.
Objective:
Houston Methodist sought a way to deliver high-
definition video at patient bedsides, in addition
to more efficiently managing their growing
wireless traffic in the hospital.
In today’s healthcare, wireless technology is becoming key to our success in
our ability to provide leading medicine.

5. Solution:
By connecting IT and Cisco® video technology
with clinical information systems, Lee Memorial’s
Epic Electronic Health Record system now runs
on an agile network, delivering real-time insight
on each patient’s condition, history and care
protocols.
Result:
On-call specialists now have remote access
to high-resolution video, enabling them to
begin emergency care virtually from their
home with instant access to a stroke patient’s
electronic record and CT scan. Additionally,
patients can also access the “My Chart”
capability on a laptop, tablet or phone.
Objective:
With over one million patient contacts each year
across multiple hospitals, Lee Memorial wanted
to simplify the way patient data is connected to
the right people, process and things.
Physicians can see the video and the CT scan that was taken 20 minutes ago
from their home. It allows us to deliver care anywhere from 10 to 45 minutes
before a drug called tPA is administered. That can make the difference
between the patient being able to walk out of the hospital and suffering much
less desirable outcomes.

system that includes electronic patient records
and automated healthcare applications.
Result:
More than 300 pediatric patients receive care-
at-a-distance from pediatric specialists each
month; 54% of patients choose to schedule a
video consultation to see a doctor sooner, and
children’s wait times to see doctors has
been reduced from months to weeks.
Objective:
Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital wanted
to address the global shortage of pediatric
specialists and allow doctors to remotely
collaborate on how to treat children afflicted with
rare forms of cancer.
The bottom line is that telehealth allows us to provide high-quality, collaborative
care that is accessible to our patients in their own communities. What we’ve
achieved since the telehealth sessions began is wonderful.
