If there has been a silver lining to the pandemic, it’s the innovative solutions that people have found to maintain connection. In this episode of Beyond the Standard, we share the collaboration between the English National Opera and the British National Health Service to support post-acute COVID patients as they learn to manage respiratory symptoms and anxiety using vocal technique inspired by professional singers. Angela FitzSimmons also speaks with a hospital CIO about his approach to digital strategies to increase patient access to care, an executive with a company focused on remote patient monitoring, and ACHC’s CEO on recognition for telehealth programs.
