Google Glass could be coming to health systems, as startup Augmedix has secured US 17 million in a strategic round of funding that includes investments from Sutter Health, Dignity Health, Catholic Health Initiatives, TriHealth, and one other. This round of funding allows Augmedix to scale Google Glass powered service across the health systems and private clinics. The goal is to allow those in the health systems to have more time to focus on their patients, and less time spent working on documentation. "We believe that delivering quality, personalized patient care shouldn't be at odds with maintaining state-of-the-art electronic health records--both are important," said Ian Shakil, CEO of Augmedix. "With our wearable solution, healthcare organizations have the technology tools necessary to drive EHR efficiencies, enhance services, and improve patient care, all at the same time."
