UAB Health System expands SeamlessMD to cardiac, thoracic and gynecology-oncology
Dr. Daniel Chu, UAB Health System’s ERAS Medical Director, was recently awarded a University of Alabama grant of $210,000 for his ongoing ERAS research, which will expand UAB’s partnership with SeamlessMD. Using SeamlessMD, UAB Medicine provides patients with a digital experience through which they can access information about their surgeries via cell phone, tablet or computer – from surgery preparation through the recovery process. UAB first implemented SeamlessMD for Colorectal surgery, and will now expand to the cardiac, thoracic and gynecological oncology.
