MUSC Health ranks among the ‘Most Wired’ hospitals in the nation for sixth consecutive year. 

The College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) has recognized Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) Health as a leader in the digital domain with the annual “Most Wired” status, meriting its inclusion as a certified Level 8 in the Acute care category for the 6th consecutive year. 

“Our teams have demonstrated an even more keen commitment to digital innovations in light of the challenges that they, our patients and our families are all living through,” Patrick J. Cawley, M.D., said according to a release. “Our care team members continue to deliver exceptional care to everyone we serve. Staying on the leading edge of high-tech innovations supports our ability to sustain that focus and equips our dedicated teams to drive forward.” 

Cawley is CEO of MUSC Health and vice president for Health Affairs, University.

CHIME conducts a survey every year to assess how effectively health care organizations apply core and advanced technologies into their clinical and business programs to improve health and care in their communities through its Digital Health Most Wired program. A total of 36,674 organizations were represented in the 2021 Digital Health Most Wired program, which includes four separate surveys: acute, ambulatory, long-term care and international acute.
