November 11, 2024 – Englewood Health has once again been recognized for its outstanding commitment to digital excellence, receiving the 2024 Digital Health Most Wired award from the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) for the eleventh consecutive year.

The award, given during the 2024 data collection period, reflects Englewood Health’s achievement of Level 9 out of 10 for both acute and ambulatory care, a distinction it has maintained for three years. This high ranking also earned Englewood Health the Performance Excellence Award for these categories.

In this year's survey, Englewood Health distinguished itself by ranking above its peers in key areas, including clinical quality and safety, interoperability, cybersecurity, infrastructure, patient engagement, and population health. As a certified Level 9 organization, Englewood Health is regarded as an industry leader, demonstrating how success in digital health can enhance patient care quality and reshape the future of healthcare.

“This recognition reflects Englewood Health’s commitment to excellence and driving meaningful change in the delivery of health care through digital transformation,” says Inderpal Kohli, vice president and chief information officer at Englewood Health. “Being a ‘Most Wired’ organization speaks to the commitment of our entire organization in readily adopting new technologies and pursuing opportunities to elevate the care we deliver every day by leveraging what advanced technologies, such as a robust electronic medical record, integrated evidence-based practice applications, or remote patient monitoring, can offer our physicians, staff, and patients.”

The Digital Health Most Wired survey serves as a “digital health check-up” for healthcare organizations worldwide, with nearly 48,000 facilities represented this year. The annual survey assesses how healthcare organizations adopt, integrate, and leverage technology to improve patient care. By consistently achieving top rankings, Englewood Health reinforces its role as a leader among the CHIME Digital Health Most Wired organizations, enhancing healthcare for communities across New Jersey and beyond.

CHIME President and CEO, Russ Branzell, commended Englewood Health, noting, “Englewood Health’s pioneering performance in the industry not only inspires other organizations but also provides better care for patients worldwide.
