How Mass General Brigham built the largest 'hospital at home'
Becker's Health IT; by Giles Bruce; 10/1/24
Somerville, Mass.-based Mass General Brigham has built the biggest hospital-at-home program in the country by getting buy-in from leadership and clinicians and through tech partnerships, executives said at a recent conference. The health system now has a capacity for acute hospital care at home of 70 patients, and is currently treating about 50 to 60 a day. The goal is to move to 10% of Mass General Brigham's overall capacity, or about 200 to 300 patients.
