Trinity Health Michigan Hospitals have received the 2023 ‘Most Wired Award’ for use of information technology.

Trinity Health Michigan received the 2023 CHIME Most Wired Award from the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives - a recognition that the health system has adopted and leveraged information technology to improve patient safety and outcomes throughout its hospitals.

Roughly 55,000 facilities were represented in the 2023 Digital Health Most Wired program, which includes four separate surveys: acute, ambulatory, long-term care, and international acute.

The surveys assessed the adoption, integration, and impact of technologies in healthcare organizations at all stages of development, from early development to industry-leading.

Each participating organization in the survey received a customized benchmarking report, an overall score, and scores for individual segments. The report and scores can be used to identify strengths and opportunities for improvement.

Participants also received certification based on their overall performance - with Level 10 being the highest. Trinity Health Michigan hospitals received Acute Level – 9 and Ambulatory Level 9 scores.

Shannon Striebich, president and CEO of the Trinity Health Michigan Market, said “Trinity Health hospitals throughout Michigan are committed to adopting technology where it makes sense, and where it most benefits our patients and the clinical staff caring for them. Technology alone does not improve care. It’s our administrators and caregivers at the bedside who are using this technology that make the real difference. This award reflects their continued commitment to our healing mission and the hard work they have undertaken to apply technology to their work.”
