TruBridge Represents the AI Needs of Rural Communities
Rural areas represent 20.0% of the U.S. population, a percentage that has actually increased recently. TruBridge has joined a consortium of experts called the TRAIN program (standing for “Trustworthy, responsible AI network”) to make sure that these experts take into account the needs of rural residents and the health care sites that serve them.
Rural areas, even though they are not quite the melting pots of large cities, can be quite diverse. Wes Cronkite, Chief Technology and Innovation Officer at TruBridge, refers in this video to an instance where AI was in use in a rural area and failed to recognize problems in a small minority population.

Extracting Value From Existing Systems with Connexall
Connexall addresses traditional hospital concerns such as fall prevention, other patient safety, and reducing alerts. According to Sandy Saggar, Interim Chief Executive Officer, they achieve this through great flexibility. On the one hand, they connect to a wide range of medical devices through standard protocols and remain vendor-neutral, which is important for hospital systems that have to integrate many systems after a merger or acquisition.
Saggar is interested in working with emerging technologies (autonomous robots, generative AI, digital assistants) but focuses on improving and deriving the most benefit from existing systems. “What can we do today that can directly influence patient care and care-givers?” he asks.
