Verizon Business and Visionable expand connected healthcare partnership
21 Septembre 2022 - 10:00AM
Verizon Business and Visionable, a leading health technology
company based in the U.K., today announced that they are expanding
their partnership which will enable both companies to work on a
range of connected healthcare solutions, via Visionable’s patented
technology powered by Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband and 5G Edge
network, in the U.S.
Verizon and Visionable are working together on a secure
next-generation digital healthcare collaboration platform that
enables healthcare professionals to access data, collaborate and
share resources within the APAC and EMEA regions. The partnership
seeks to address some of healthcare’s biggest challenges including
connecting frontline responders to specialist doctors during
emergencies and enabling access to community-led care for patients
needing long-term support.
“The healthcare industry generates a massive amount of data, but
its ability to make good use of that data has long been hampered by
network architectures that cannot handle it efficiently, securely,
or cost-effectively. Through the combination of 5G and Edge
computing, healthcare facilities and professionals will have access
to secure near-real-time connectivity creating a new link between
doctor and patient. As a result, illnesses could someday be
diagnosed and treated more quickly, and medical costs could
potentially decrease,” said Scott Lawrence, Senior Vice President
for Verizon Global Solutions.
Today’s announcement follows the launch of Visionable’s
private-5G enabled Connected Healthcare Center in the U.K. in May.
The center showcases the benefits of next-generation connectivity
and collaboration across a patient’s care journey from urgent and
emergency care to virtual wards to in-person care and
rehabilitation, supported by Verizon private 5G.
“Our partnership provides real-time connectivity and
productivity, when and where it counts and costs. Together with
Verizon, we endeavor to support our healthcare teams by enabling
them to bring healthcare to the patient wherever they are,“ said
Alan Lowe, CEO and Co-Founder of Visionable.
This engagement is part of Verizon’s continued strategy to
partner with customers, startups, universities, and large
enterprises to explore how 5G can disrupt and transform nearly
every industry. This includes Verizon’s strategic partnership with
Emory Healthcare in Atlanta where Verizon is collaborating with
Emory Healthcare to help spur the development of healthcare
solutions powered by 5G Ultra Wideband.
Today’s announcement builds on the company’s
network-as-a-service foundation and supports its growing private
networks, mobile edge compute and business solutions.
