Скачать или смотреть Amazon palm-scanning technology comes to the hospital

Amazon palm-scanning technology comes to the hospital, New York University's Langone Health will use Amazon's palm recognition technology for patient check-ins, the health system announced Monday as a major health information technology conference kicked off. Why it matters: The new system, which will be optional for patients, aims to make it easier and faster to verify patient identities when they show up to an appointment. State of play: Starting next week, patients arriving at NYU Langone facilities can scan their palm to check in and verify their identity. Zoom in: Amazon's palm-scanning technology won't collect health care records from providers, per the company's news release. Our thought bubble: The new tech is cool, and it would be nice not to have to dig our ID out of our bag when we're already running late for an appointment.
