Bonus Features, HLTH Edition – November 17, 2022 – News from Amazon, Fitbit, Google, and Verizon, plus innovation awards from UCSF and Fierce Healthcare

Welcome to the weekly edition of Healthcare IT Today Bonus Features. This article will be a weekly roundup of interesting stories, product announcements, new hires, partnerships, research studies, awards, sales, and more. Because there’s so much happening out there in healthcare IT we aren’t able to cover in our full articles, we still want to make sure you’re informed of all the latest news, announcements, and stories happening to help you better do your job.

This edition is our second special dispatch from HLTH 2022. There have been a lot of new research reports, new products, and news partnerships announced at the event. We wanted to try and cover as many announcements for the Healthcare IT Today community as we could. And in case you missed it, here’s the November 15 HLTH edition of Bonus Features
