JHF and the Pittsburgh Technology Council to Continue Partnership on RAPS Initiative

FortyX80 and the Pittsburgh Technology Council (PTC) will continue to serve as critical collaborators with the Pittsburgh Regional Health Initiative and the Jewish Healthcare Foundation in advancing the Regional Autonomous Patient Safety (RAPS) initiative through a series of features, stories, and interviews in their publications during the upcoming year. A JHF grant to FortyX80 will support content on existing innovators and activities in Pittsburgh and detail the opportunity for advanced technology in health care to prevent errors.

The RAPS initiative was formally launched on February 24th at Carnegie Mellon University in partnership with the Pittsburgh Technology Council, Carnegie Mellon University's Center for Digital Health Innovation, the Center for Military Medicine Research, and the University of Pittsburgh's Department of Biomedical Informatics. This launch event included regional stakeholders across academia, health care, life sciences, technology, industry, and government. The inaugural gathering sought to galvanize new partnerships to build an economy around healthcare safety and establish Pittsburgh as a global hub for development of autonomous patient safety technologies.

This effort builds on the past partnership with FortyX80 and PTC to raise awareness on technology solutions to current problems and adverse events in the U.S. healthcare system
