The urgent need for a comprehensive, reliable emergency communication system has never been more apparent. According to FEMA, the United States witnessed an alarming increase in federally declared emergencies and disasters, doubling from 59 in 2019 to 124 in 2020.
This trend underscores the necessity for advanced, rapid-response systems to ensure public safety. Enter the strategic collaboration between HipLink and FEMA's Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS), positioning HipLink as an IPAWS-compliant Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) Alert Origination Tool.
As the digital revolution continues to alter every aspect of our lives, the healthcare industry isn't an exception. The need for remote, convenient, and accessible care has been accelerated by recent events, introducing a new paradigm of digital healthcare. A key player in this transformation is HipLink Software, providing intelligent communication and incident notification solutions that promise to meet the evolving demands of this sector.
“Service-friendly architecture” sounds like a great benefit for any type of IT system, but what exactly does it mean? What makes one alerting system’s build service-friendly compared to others available on the market? And why should agencies choose this type of system when selecting a new solution?
Fear not! HipLink is here to demystify the concept and outline the core characteristics of service-friendly alerting software.
In June 2023, Google announced it partnered with Mayo Clinic as it tries to expand use of generative AI in healthcare. Artificial Intelligence (AI), with its ability to mimic human intelligence, is positioning itself to become a cornerstone for effective communication in the healthcare industry. One of its greatest impacts lies in the realm of personalized patient communication. AI-driven platforms can process extensive patient data to tailor messages, fostering better understanding and patient engagement.
As the healthcare industry continues to embrace digital transformation, communication between providers and other stakeholders is more important than ever.
