GE Healthcare and AMC Health are partnering to offer remote patient monitoring technology to patients after they’ve been discharged from the hospital, MobiHealthNews reports.

Given GE’s large install base in U.S. hospitals, the companies are pitching the partnership as a way to offer RPM tools to more providers and patients, as well as to anticipate demand for future care, like a potential readmission. Eventually, the companies plan to integrate hospital data and home data together in GE’s Edison Health database. Read more.
