“This partnership between Atrium Health and Siemens Healthineers
will create tremendous value for our communities and the health
care field,” said Eugene A. Woods, president and CEO of Atrium
Health. “Together, we will reshape the future of health care,
invent new technologies and grow the next generation of talented
clinicians – all with a laser-like focus on equity and inclusive
growth.”
Through unique services and approaches within the Value
Partnership, Siemens Healthineers will help Atrium Health meet its
strategic goals, increase efficiency and work toward improving
health in communities in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia
and Alabama – and beyond. Through Siemens Healthineers, Atrium
Health will continue to modernize its healthcare infrastructure to
serve patients, use technologies like artificial intelligence to
improve outcomes and quality, reduce costs in health care across
the enterprise, as well as jointly develop education and workforce
solutions to help encourage and enhance careers in health care.
“Siemens Healthineers is proud to continue its strong
partnership with Atrium Health imaging service engineering teams to
improve the quality of health care,” said Dave Pacitti, president
and head of the Americas, Siemens Healthineers. “Not only will this
agreement nurture the development of the next-generation workforce
in health care, but it will also serve as a foundation for future
innovations.”
“As an academic learning health system, Atrium Health is at the
forefront of research and innovation that can improve the health of
our population,” said Dr. Rasu Shrestha, enterprise executive vice
president and chief strategy and transformation officer for Atrium
Health. “This agreement with Siemens Healthineers will help Atrium
Health push the boundaries of innovations in clinical care,
research and community impact, and also help us equip the new bed
towers being built at our flagship hospitals in Charlotte and
Winston-Salem, North Carolina with leading-edge technologies. This
foundation will allow Atrium Health to lay the groundwork for our
soon-to-be constructed projects such as Wake Forest University
School of Medicine Charlotte and the adjacent ‘The Pearl‘
innovation district.”
Through the Value Partnership model, hospitals can optimize
business processes, expand capabilities and drive innovation. These
innovative agreements rely on the entire Siemens Healthineers
