The digital health space refers to the integration of technology and health care services to improve the overall quality of health care delivery. It encompasses a wide range of innovative and emerging technologies such as wearables, telehealth, artificial intelligence, mobile health, and electronic health records (EHRs). The digital health space offers numerous benefits such as improved patient outcomes, increased access to health care, reduced costs, and improved communication and collaboration between patients and health care providers. For example, patients can now monitor their vital signs such as blood pressure and glucose levels from home using wearable devices and share the data with their doctors in real-time. Telehealth technology allows patients to consult with their health care providers remotely without having to travel to the hospital, making health care more accessible, particularly in remote or rural areas. Artificial intelligence can be used to analyze vast amounts of patient data to identify patterns, predict outcomes, and provide personalized treatment recommendations. Overall, the digital health space is rapidly evolving, and the integration of technology in health

Google Cloud announced three new Healthcare Data Engine (HDE) accelerators—developed in collaboration with Hackensack Meridian Health, Lifepoint Health, and others—that help organizations address common use cases around health equity, patient flow, and value-based care.  Healthcare Data Engine builds on and extends the core capabilities of the Google Cloud Healthcare API to make healthcare data more immediately useful by enabling an interoperable, longitudinal record of patient data. Healthcare Data Engine can map over 90% of HL7v2 messages to FHIR across leading EHRs out of the box, enabling a path to better care, while reducing the total cost of ownership.  "These accelerators, developed collaboratively with healthcare organizations, will solve a range of industry pain points, and they will unlock the truly transformative power of interoperable longitudinal patient records," said Aashima Gupta, global director of Google Cloud's Healthcare Strategy and Solutions. "The kind of transformation needed in healthcare can be daunting and slow, but an incremental, use case-based approach breaks apart these challenges into manageable solutions that capture specific business opportunities and drive innovation."
Make better real-time decisions around population health, resource utilization, optimizing clinical trials and accelerating research, identifying high-risk patients, and other critical needs with health insights.


Rapidly build intelligent healthcare solutions in the cloud

Cloud Healthcare API allows easy and standardized data exchange between healthcare applications and solutions built on Google Cloud. With support for popular healthcare data standards such as HL7® FHIR®, HL7® v2, and DICOM®, the Cloud Healthcare API provides a fully managed, highly scalable, enterprise-grade development environment for building clinical and analytics solutions securely on Google Cloud. The Cloud Healthcare API also includes additional value-added capabilities, such as automated DICOM and FHIR de-identification to better prepare data for these solutions.

Cloud Healthcare API provides a pathway to intelligent analytics and machine learning capabilities in Google Cloud with pre-built connectors for streaming data processing in Dataflow, scalable analytics with BigQuery, and machine learning with Vertex AI.

The Cloud Healthcare API is backed by Google Cloud’s  privacy and security features, supports HIPAA compliance, and is in scope for Google Cloud’s ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27017, and ISO/IEC 27018 certifications. In addition, Google Cloud is HITRUST CSF certified.
