In 2023, the Healthcare Association of Hawaii adopted the Healthcare Capacity System to improve the way the state’s hospitals manage and coordinate care. HCS provides real-time data on critical health care metrics, enabling providers to make informed decisions, optimize resources, and deliver high-quality care on a daily basis. This innovative system has transformed the state’s health care landscape, empowering professionals to quickly navigate the unique challenges of providing care across six islands.
In addition to its everyday benefits, HCS has proven particularly invaluable in helping Hawaii’s health care system respond during unpredictable emergencies that threaten the archipelago, such as hurricanes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity. By offering a centralized platform for seamless communication and coordination, HCS allows for swift and effective response during crises, ensuring that patients receive the care they need when they need it most.
