In this episode of WHAHC Congress Catch-Up, we explore the evolving technological backbone of Hospital at Home (HaH), drawing on insights from the WHAHC 2025 session “Technology and HaH – Part 1,” chaired by Dr. Jared Conley (Harvard Medical School, USA). From virtual visits and remote monitoring to patient identification and EHR integration, this session offered a global snapshot of what’s working—and where the biggest friction points remain.

You’ll also hear about:• The five core tech domains essential for scaling HaH, and why connectivity remains the make-or-break factor (USA)

• Singapore’s high usability scores—and the hidden challenges in effectiveness, communication, and reliability

• Portugal’s AI-driven HD Signal platform, cutting clinician screening time by an impressive 78%

• Amsterdam UMC’s decision to build HaH directly into Epic, and the realities of reimbursement and interoperability barriers

• The global call for clinician-centered design, fewer false alarms, seamless data flow, and tech that supports—not disrupts—clinical judgment

From broadband limitations to AI breakthroughs, this episode highlights the shared global journey to make HaH technology reliable, integrated, and invisible enough to let clinicians focus on what matters most: safe, connected, patient-centered care at home.
