Session Description:

Healthcare organizations’ systems do not remain static. Clinical, technical, and financial needs ever evolve. So, whether upgrading an EHR system or transitioning to a completely new system, organizations must develop mitigating strategies for complex implementation challenges that can impact their time, productivity, and revenue. 

We will discuss the challenges healthcare organizations face while upgrading or implementing new systems and the best practices around change management, training, usability, interoperability, data management, and resource allocation.

What we will explore:
1. Improving the speed and quality of implementations, with a focus on what tasks vendors can and should assume
2. Facilitating user adoption, with a focus on an outcome-based training model
3. Assessing and mitigating risk, with a focus on security requirements and potential impacts to an implementation timeline

Objective:

CIOs and the technology department are constantly in a difficult position. Business operators within the organization have increased need to optimize and automate their work, but there are far too many initiatives for IT to support alone. In that space comes shadow initiatives, where IT has no oversight and often any knowledge. Trying to maintain an efficient, secure network with these blind spots has the potential to become a compliance, privacy, and security nightmare.

Being a good partner within the business means balancing these concerns. We want to talk with industry leaders about this topic, including questions like:
• Right now, how concerned is your department about the level of shadow IT?
• How do you balance open innovation against security and control?
• What can make a more successful citizen development initiative?
• How can IT leaders get ahead of automation initiatives and become the proactive hero?

Health systems are striving to address healthcare consumerism trends and combat competitive pressures by delivering digital self-care and self-management tools that both engage patients and improve health outcomes. It’s clear that the automation and virtual delivery of healthcare is growing in popularity. So, as a provider seeking to find new solutions for digital patient engagement that reach diverse patient populations, improve outcomes, reduce high-cost services such as readmissions, length of stay and ED visits, and optimize the patient experience - how do you measure “digital patient engagement”?

What are the right digital interactions and activity measures to track? Do the number of ‘clicks’ and ‘views’ matter most, or should impact on quality and health outcome metrics carry more weight? How do health systems know if digital patient engagement solutions are effective, what are the right key performance indicators and metrics to track (beyond patient activation), what data points is the C-Suite measuring against, and what trends should we track across patient populations?

Join us as we explore how to identify key performance indicators and metrics for evaluating successful digital patient engagement – so we can all come to a clearer idea of the elusive formula for how to measure digital patient engagement.

In response to growing threats, increased regulatory scrutiny, & customer demand, leading healthcare organizations are recognizing that traditional approaches to assessing & managing cyber risk are not effective. A well-designed information security program begins with an enterprise risk analysis, which assesses risks that apply to all information systems that maintain sensitive data such as ePHI. It continues with an integrated risk management program, which tracks and manages remediation action items that ultimately reduce risk to acceptable levels.

Session Description:

How to curate from diverse sources current, emerging, and evolving structure, semi-structure, and unstructured data into a data lakehouse for clinical and research analytics. And how to do so cost effectively with speed, quality and reliability through advanced automation, smart analytics, and DevOps paradigm.


With the global healthcare and life sciences data analytics market growing at 23.8% CAGR from 2021 to 2028, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc, organizations continue to make strong investments in smart data analytics driven by the need to improve value-based care, patient engagement, and operational excellence. The healthcare industry generates a tremendous amount of data from several diverse sources but struggles to convert that data into insights that improve clinical outcomes, patient engagement, and operational efficiencies. Data lakehouse and its structured transactional layer, coupled with sophisticated tools like AI/ML, NLP and smart analytics are used to spot trends and unlock insights that are not otherwise evident in data warehouses and data lakes. Many healthcare CxOs and clinical leaders are looking to curate patient, research, and operational data to innovate and use the results to deliver personalized care at the bedside. The challenge in breaking down the data silos, real time data ingestion, enforcing governance and security, confidence that the analytics is of highest quality and reliability, and doing it cost effectively in near-real time can be a daunting task for leaders. 

What would a one-stop shop to assist organizations in securely converting their data into a valuable commodity with advanced analytical techniques in a data lakehouse paradigm look like. How important or attractive would it be to be able to execute digital transformation quickly and securely within HITRUST, in a cost-effective and frictionless way. What considerations will you make when deciding on which solutions and expert partner to leverage in this quest?

What digital transformation tools are there to automate the process? What used to take several months can now be done in just a few days. The ability is now there to make the deployment process repeatable within minutes with technology that leverages DevOps instead of system administrators and engineers.

How are you responding to the need for advanced and smart analytical tools that can analyse the wealth of data in real time with speed, reliability, and accuracy and place it meaningfully onto actionable visual management dashboards? Are your data and digital strategies effectively assisting your organization to better provision healthcare services, improve patient engagement, enhance personalized care, measure the effectiveness of various treatment options, optimize operational costs, and increase top line growth?
