The collaboration will use artificial intelligence and clinical engineering to improve equipment reliability and cybersecurity.


TRIMEDX and OSF HealthCare have formed a partnership to manage clinical assets and improve patient care through clinical engineering and artificial intelligence. The collaboration aims to increase operational efficiency at Peoria, Illinois-based OSF HealthCare.

The initiative will leverage TRIMEDX’s expertise in healthcare technology management and data analytics to improve equipment reliability, increase asset visibility, and strengthen cybersecurity.

Pointcore Inc, a subsidiary of OSF HealthCare that manages healthcare operations, will oversee the partnership.

“Healthcare organizations today need more than equipment maintenance; they need trusted partners who can turn data into action and technology into strategic advantage,” says Neil de Crescenzo, CEO of TRIMEDX, in a release. “By combining our clinical engineering expertise with AI-powered intelligence and deep operational insights, we’re helping providers make smarter decisions, improve performance, and create more resilient healthcare environments.”

The partnership is now underway and will involve ongoing initiatives to support operational performance and patient care across the OSF HealthCare system, according to a release from TRIMEDX.

“We are excited to partner with the TRIMEDX team for the comprehensive management and optimization of our medical device inventory,” says Brian Harms, chief administrative officer for Pointcore, in a release.

Eric Webb, chief development officer for Pointcore, adds in a release, “This partnership represents our commitment to providing the highest quality of care to our patients. Through this relationship with TRIMEDX, we will ensure our clinicians have access to the tools and equipment they need to best serve their patients—all while using the latest technology and processes to bolster our defenses against the ever-growing number of cyberattacks on healthcare organizations.”
