Health systems are under unprecedented pressure, with rapidly growing data volumes stretching clinical capacity and contributing to care delays. Delays are often compounded by fragmented data across monitoring systems, imaging platforms, and clinical applications. Philips\u2019 Future Health Index 2025<\/a> found that 77% of healthcare professionals have lost clinical time due to issues with incomplete or inaccessible patient data [1]. As providers look for ways to expand capacity without adding burden, AI is increasingly being adopted to help automate routine tasks and surface relevant insights sooner. Yet scaling AI requires trusted, interoperable, longitudinal data that can be contextualized in clinical workflows.<\/p>\n Philips\u2019 platforms are designed to connect data, devices, and teams across care settings and diagnostic domains. By linking medical devices, patient monitoring systems, imaging platforms, and health information systems \u2013 including EMR and third-party technologies \u2013 Philips enables health systems to create a unified data foundation that supports continuous visibility and longitudinal insight across the enterprise. At HIMSS26, Philips is showcasing two core capabilities that help make this connected care intelligence possible: enterprise patient monitoring<\/b> that enables longitudinal care intelligence, and Integrated Diagnostics<\/b> that brings imaging and diagnostic data together across the enterprise.<\/p>\n \u201cCare is longitudinal \u2013 it doesn\u2019t begin or end at the hospital door,\u201d said Julia Strandberg, Chief Business Leader Connected Care at Royal Philips. \u201cWhen data is connected across environments, clinicians can see a more continuous patient trajectory rather than disconnected snapshots. That broader context helps reduce noise, improve situational awareness, and allow care teams to focus their time on what matters most: earlier intervention and better patient outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n Enterprise patient monitoring \u2013 enabling longitudinal care intelligence <\/b> By integrating medical devices and health information systems, including EMRs and a broad ecosystem of third-party devices, Philips helps create a connected data thread with central monitoring and surveillance workflows<\/a> that support clinical decision-making across encounters and over time. This longitudinal foundation can help reduce workflow friction for care teams. Connected monitoring can also support strategies to relieve pressure on high-acuity environments by supporting safe, early discharge with oversight beyond the hospital walls.<\/p>\n Integrated Diagnostics \u2013 enterprise imaging integration to help reduce workload<\/b> Integrated Diagnostics connects diagnostic systems, workflows, and AI applications so clinicians can access a more unified view of patient imaging and diagnostic data when decisions cannot wait. Philips\u2019 HealthSuite Integrated Diagnostics<\/a> portfolio provides a comprehensive suite of cloud-based solutions designed to connect data, integrate workflows, and embed AI across the diagnostic enterprise.<\/p>\n \u201cIntegrated Diagnostics isn\u2019t about adding another tool \u2013 it\u2019s about connecting the diagnostic enterprise, so clinicians aren\u2019t forced to assemble the story themselves,\u201d said Shez Partovi, Chief Innovation Officer and Chief Business Leader of Enterprise Informatics at Royal Philips. \u201cWhen cardiology, radiology, pathology and other diagnostic domains come together on a connected foundation, teams gain a more unified view of the patient, time to diagnosis can drop, and intelligence can be embedded into everyday workflows in a way that truly scales.\u201d<\/p>\n Philips\u2019 platform approach is built with cybersecurity, privacy, and responsible AI practices at its core. Trust is foundational to enabling data liquidity across the enterprise, supporting longitudinal context, and scaling AI in ways that strengthen clinical decision-making while minimizing unnecessary complexity.<\/p>\n Experience Philips at HIMSS26<\/b> [1] Philips Future Health Index 2025.

\nAcross the acute and post-acute continuum, clinicians need continuous visibility that travels with the patient. Philips is advancing longitudinal care intelligence by connecting enterprise monitoring with interoperable clinical data \u2013 so physiologic signals remain visible as patients move across care settings, including in high-acuity environments, during transitions of care, and after discharge.<\/p>\n
\nA complete patient story also depends on diagnostics. Yet in many hospitals, diagnostic imaging data live in disconnected systems across radiology, cardiology, pathology, and other specialties. Clinicians often navigate multiple viewers, logins, and workflows to access the information needed to make decisions.<\/p>\n
\nAt HIMSS26, Philips is demonstrating how enterprise patient monitoring and Integrated Diagnostics can reduce fragmentation, accelerate insight, and support confident action across care environments and diagnostic workflows \u2013 while giving clinicians time back to deliver better care.
