Mackenzie Health has awarded the contract to Compugen for Managed ICAT (Information, Communication and Automation Technology) Services (MIS) at the future Mackenzie Vaughan Hospital. Compugen will be working with Mackenzie Health to provide and support an integrated technology platform to help build and implement its smart hospital vision. The partnership is expected to create new jobs to benefit the local community.

Scheduled for completion in 2020, Mackenzie Vaughan Hospital will be the first hospital in Canada to feature fully integrated “smart” technology, which features systems and medical devices that can speak directly to one another to maximize information exchange. Through modern and proven best practices, the hospital will provide state-of-the-art health care and positive outcomes for patients and their families.

“We are delighted to be supporting Mackenzie Health as they implement their remarkable smart hospital vision.

The mission-critical platform will allow for the introduction of cutting-edge medical technologies and connectivity both inside and outside of the hospital walls to enable integrated care. We applaud Mackenzie Health for their commitment to transforming healthcare delivery to better serve patients and their families,” said Harry Zarek, President and CEO, Compugen.
