The Center for Connected Health at Partners HealthCare is a worldwide acknowledged leader in remote patient monitoring and care innovation. Through the use of information technology tools the Center has been developing new technologies and processes to extend the reach and effectiveness of clinicians while empowering individuals to better self-manage themselves.
