NorthShore University HealthSystem's Digital Strategy Is Being Tested Against the Second Wave of the Pandemic

NorthShore University HealthSystem has seen a steady return of almost all services since June, and currently the health system is close to 100% of where it was before the coronavirus pandemic. 

NorthShore is now charting a course forward, even with the expectation that it will realize a significant decline of about a quarter billion dollars this fiscal year.

But with colder weather settling in and the flu season beginning in earnest, the large, Chicago-based health system of five acute care hospitals and 150 outpatient locations has had to do what many hospitals are now doing – downshifting and reverting back to some of the measures it took in the midst of the initial COVID-19 pandemic.
