For Clay Today
FLEMING ISLAND – Baptist Health has once again been recognized for its commitment to advancing health care delivery and enhancing the patient experience through technology.
This is the third year in a row that the health system has earned the prestigious level 10 designation – the highest possible recognition – for the acute and ambulatory categories in the “Digital Health Most Wired” survey conducted by the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME).
This places Baptist Health, including the Clay campus, among an elite group of 18 organizations worldwide, out of 50,000 surveyed, to achieve this top honor from the world’s largest network of health care IT professionals.
“We are honored to have received the highest designation from CHIME for the third consecutive year,” said Michael A. Mayo, DHA, FACHE, president and CEO of Baptist Health. “Our dedication to excellence and innovation continues to make a meaningful impact on the health and well-being of the communities we proudly serve.”
Achieving level 10 status in this international benchmarking program is a testament to Baptist Health’s rigorous approach to digital transformation and the meaningful implementation of innovative health strategies and evidence-based outcomes in acute and ambulatory care environments. Participants are ranked from one to 10, with levels nine and 10 reserved for healthcare technology leaders who are driving the industry forward through cutting-edge digital initiatives.
A key factor in Baptist Health’s recognition is its commitment to enhancing the patient experience through user-friendly digital platforms, including the My Baptist Chart patient portal and the Baptist Access wayfinding app. These tools provide patients with timely, personalized support, making navigation of care easier than ever. The health system’s ongoing optimization of electronic health records and adoption of artificial intelligence tools, such as voice-driven AI, also helped differentiate it from its peers.
