This week CHIME released the names of healthcare organizations that qualified for awards and recognition under the 2019 CHIME HealthCare’s Most Wired program. Foundation firms that want to review the names and congratulate their clients for this prestigious distinction can access the list here. 

The Most Wired program is designed to identify hospitals, health systems and other provider groups that use innovative technologies to advance health and care. To be considered, an organization must complete a survey that assesses their adoption, integration and impact of technologies in their clinical and business programs.  A total of 16,168 organizations were represented in the 2019 Most Wired program, which this year included three separate surveys: domestic, ambulatory and international.  

Every participant received a benchmarking report and certification at a level that reflected the organization’s overall performance. Those earning Level 7-10 are being honored with awards for Levels 8-10 and Special Recognition for Level 7. Their organizations will be recognized at the CHIME19 Fall CIO Forum and have their name appear in the November issue of a digital and print Most Wired, Modern Healthcare Special Edition. 

Last year Modern Healthcare Custom Media offered discounted rates to advertisers who are CHIME Foundation partners and wanted to be included in the supplement, which goes to the magazine’s 70,000 C-suite print subscribers. A digital version was posted online on the Modern Healthcare and CHIME websites, too.  

Modern Healthcare Custom Media is once again extending the deal to Foundation firms wanting to show their support for healthcare organizations that achieve this high standard. What is different this year is the availability of the list of recipients, which last year was unveiled at an awards event during CHIME18. We made this change in our timing at the request of Most Wired participants, who want to share their good news with their patients, physicians and staff as soon as possible.    

Foundation partners can save more than $1,500 on a full-page ad and almost $1,000 on a half-page ad. Please contact your account director for more information about placing ads or supporting Most Wired with a sponsorship. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to your CHIME Foundation business director or our Most Wired team at [email protected].
