ViVE 2026: Unpacking AI-ready digital workflows for optimal patient care
Blog post from PubNub
ViVE 2026 and HIMSS US 2026 highlighted key themes in healthcare: patient engagement, artificial intelligence (AI), and remote monitoring, signaling a shift from experimental to operational digital health solutions. With new reimbursement codes and regulatory changes, remote patient monitoring (RPM) is becoming essential across the care continuum, transitioning from a pilot phase to a core strategy in healthcare systems. The U.S. RPM sector is projected to grow significantly, driven by aging populations and healthcare labor shortages. AI, while pervasive, often lacks clear application, necessitating a focus on workload reduction and observability to transition from curiosity to infrastructure. Patient engagement is evolving into a continuous conversation across multiple channels, emphasizing the need for reliable, compliant infrastructure. The success of RPM and Hospital-at-Home initiatives depends on efficient data transmission and interoperability with existing systems. Additionally, coordination of a distributed workforce requires real-time, role-aware communication platforms. The integration of wellness and prevention into healthcare underscores the need for digital solutions that are live, responsive, and connected, paving the way for HIPAA-ready, scalable infrastructure. Despite challenges like interoperability and digital divides, the focus on AI-driven triage and phased rollouts is crucial for effective deployment. To stay relevant, healthcare systems must invest in scalable infrastructure that supports patient engagement, RPM, and workforce coordination, ensuring AI initiatives are problem-oriented and auditable.
