\n\t\t\t\tAbout the RLDatix Awards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The RLDatix Awards honor the dedicated teams and individuals across healthcare who relentlessly strive to deliver exceptional care. Presented annually at the Connected Healthcare Summit, these awards recognize organizations and leaders who turn safety data into action, connect siloed systems and build cultures where improvement is sustained – not one-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recipients are selected based on measurable outcomes, the depth of cultural and operational change and the broader impact of their work on patients, staff, and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2026 Award winners<\/h4>\n\n\n

At the 2026 Connected Healthcare Summit in Nashville, more than 400 healthcare leaders gathered to confront one of the industry’s most persistent challenges: closing the gap between safety data and real-world action. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

RLDatix recognized eight organizations and individuals across seven award categories – each one raising the standard of care in ways that are both measurable and meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\t\t\t\tInnovation in Patient Safety & Risk Management <\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winner: Children’s Hospital of Orange County, part of Rady Children’s Health – Orange, California<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

CHOC completed a full migration from its legacy event reporting system to RLDatix’s healthcare risk management and patient safety platform in just four months. The team redesigned workflows, eliminated bottlenecks in how events were referred to unit leaders and simplified submission forms to reduce friction for frontline staff. The results: average event closure times dropped from roughly 60 days to 30 days, and reporting volume increased – both within the same four-month window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong>
When events close faster, clinical teams can act sooner to prevent recurrence. When more staff report without hesitation, it signals trust in the system – the foundation every safety culture is built on. <\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\tInnovation in Regulatory & Compliance<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winner: University Hospitals – Cleveland, Ohio<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

University Hospitals connected system policies, regulatory standard, accreditation audits and clinical reference content into a single, accessible environment where caregivers can find what they need at the point of care. They streamlined the user experience through unified search and single sign-on, and stood up a dedicated subcommittee to govern the use of PolicyGen AI – backed by a research study evaluating user perceptions of accuracy, safety and usability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong><\/em>
Every minute a clinician spends navigating disconnected systems is a minute not spent with patients. By making compliance intuitive rather than burdensome, University Hospitals reduces friction for caregivers while strengthening readiness for accreditation surveys. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\tInnovation in Patient Experience & Outcomes<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winner: GI North – Cumming, Georgia<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Using SocialClimb (an RLDatix company), this gastroenterology practice systematically gathers patient feedback and translates it into operational improvements. The team also tracks how those efforts translate into real outcomes – measuring whether outreach and engagement activities are leading to more patients getting the care they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong><\/em>
In specialty care, where patients often choose providers based on reputation and referrals, the connection between patient experience and organizational sustainability is direct. GI North shows what it looks like when patient feedback drives real decisions – not just reporting. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\tData Continuity & Availability<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winner: Medstar Health – Columbia, Maryland<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Medstar Health prioritized governed, clinician – friendly access to historical data, ensuring information is available when and where it’s needed for clinical decision-making. Through its partnership with RLDatix, Medstar has advanced the use of analytics and AI to strengthen patient safety event analysis while modernizing its data foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong><\/em>
Effective digital transformation starts with making the data you already have work harder for the people who need it most. When clinicians can access historical safety data at the point of care, they make better-informed decisions, faster. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\tInnovation in Provider & Workforce<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winner: Saint Francis Health System – Tulsa, Oklahoma<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

An RLDatix customer for more than a decade, Saint Francis recently expanded its use of credentialing to include residents and additional contract groups, and adopted Provider Insights to build unified provider profiles that connect workforce data with safety solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong><\/em>
When credentialing, safety events and provider performance data are connected, organizations can spot patterns that siloed systems would miss – like whether onboarding gaps correlate with incident trends. That’s kind of proactive risk management that protects both patients and providers. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\tExcellence in Implementation<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winner: SCA Health – Deerfield, Illinois<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Since first partnering with RLDatix in 2016, SCA Health has built a safety platform deeply embedded in the daily workflows of its outpatient surgery center network. The team has expanded proactive risk assessments for high-impact areas like wrong-surgery prevention and retained surgical items, redesigned near-miss reporting to align with high-reliability principles and integrated safety data with enterprise systems. The model SCA Health built was subsequently adopted across their broader parent organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong><\/em>
Sustained optimization – continuously evolving the platform alongside the organization – is what turns a reporting tool into an enterprise safety intelligence system. The fact that their parent organization adopted the same model speaks to its scalability and impact. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\tChange Agents of the Year<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winners: Stephanie Grabowsky and Becky Pomrenke – University of South Alabama Health, Mobile, Alabama<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Stephanie Grabowsky led one of the most complex RLD360 implementations among the year’s nominees, breaking a sweeping initiative into achievable steps and shaping the platform to fit real clinical and operational workflows. Beck Pomrenke has been the driving force behind rebuilding USA Health’s patient safety program, including bringing in the nationally recognized CANDOR framework in preparation for new federal patient safety reporting requirements. Becky was named to Becker’s 2025 list of 132 patient safety experts to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong><\/em>
Technology alone doesn’t transform an organization – people do. Stephanie and Becky demonstrate that when deep technical expertise is paired with a genuine commitment to safety culture, the result isn’t just a successful go-live, it’s lasting, systemwide change. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\t\t\t\tCollaboration Champion<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Winner: Katelyn Hobbs – Midwest Surgical Hospital – Omaha, Nebraska<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

During Midwest Surgical Hospital’s PolicyStat implementation, Katelyn didn’t just transform her own organization’s policy governance structure; she actively helped peer organizations in the RLDatix implementation cohort refine their workflows and strengthen adoption. She openly shares lessons learned, practical strategies and her emerging “DO-MORE-ology” improvement framework, encouraging others to adapt and build on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Why it matters<\/strong><\/em>
Healthcare improvement accelerates when organizations learn from each other – but that kind of open knowledge-sharing doesn’t happen on its own. Katelyn’s generosity created a multiplier effect, helping multiple organizations move faster and avoid missteps. <\/em><\/p>\n\n \n\n \n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n \n \n
