HP Modernizes Healthcare With Industry-Leading Technology Solutions

HP Inc. unveiled a cutting-edge lineup of healthcare devices specifically designed to address the next generation of patient care. HP’s new healthcare portfolio announced at HIMSS18, is built to address the unique needs of healthcare providers, including enhanced patient safety, smarter workflows and telemedicine solutions, and robust data security features. The new devices include the HP EliteBook 840 G5 Healthcare Edition notebook, the HP EliteOne 800 G4 23.8 Healthcare Edition All-in-One (AiO), and the HP Healthcare Edition HC270cr Clinical Review Display.

“Healthcare is a unique setting and our customers are looking for a very specific set of technology solutions. The HP Healthcare Edition portfolio was designed from the ground up with the needs of clinicians in mind, resulting in a portfolio of industry-first offerings that include the world’s most secure and manageable devices,” said Reid Oakes, senior director of Worldwide Healthcare at HP Inc. “With HP’s new Healthcare Edition notebook, All-in-One, and clinical review display, we are delivering solutions that are safer, smarter and more secure for healthcare. Our latest offerings help providers protect patients and their data, streamline workflows, and facilitate collaboration across the care continuum to deliver effective patient-centered care.”

Insights-Driven Innovation

The healthcare industry is faced with unique challenges when it comes to safety, efficiency, and security. More than 2.5 million cases of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) occur in the European Union and European Economic Area (EU/EEA) each year, 5 illustrating the need for devices designed for repeated and thorough sanitization. Additionally, there is a need to streamline clinical workflows and boost productivity to improve the care delivery experience. On average, clinicians log into workstations and applications 70 times a day, 6 impacting the amount of time spent engaging with patients. Lastly, today’s security threats are complex and require comprehensive defense strategies. In 2016, over 16 million healthcare records were exposed or stolen, with the average cost of data breach per lost or stolen record estimated to be $355 in the U.S.7
