Created in 2023, the partnership allows Reimagine Care to offer cancer patients digital, virtual and in-home care. Patients in the program have access to a team of clinical oncology specialists 27/4, 365 days a year, via text, phone or video call. 

During the first phase of the partnership, patient engagement rates rose to 98% in the first 30 days and more than 80% after 90 days. Reimagine Care managed and resolved 87% of patient symptoms without the need to escalate to Memorial Hermann’s facilities, and helped reduce emergency visits to less than 5% of patients. The partnership also reduced symptom-related interruptions to Memorial Hermann physicians by 87%.

The partnership is now expanding to patients and physicians across the Greater Houston area. 

At the Becker's Perioperative Summit, taking place September 14–15 in Chicago, perioperative leaders and healthcare executives will focus on improving operating room efficiency, enhancing patient safety, optimizing staffing and driving innovation across surgical services.
