High-quality care requires effective communication between all the stakeholders in a patient’s treatment, including the care team, outside providers, family members, and of course, the patient themselves. Unfortunately, many healthcare organizations still use outdated, inefficient communication methods (including siloed systems, unsecured messaging, faxing, paper process, and verbal updates) to keep their staff in sync and their patients informed. In fact, studies show poor communication is the root cause of avoidable delays, risk, and revenue loss. As we enter a new decade, it’s the perfect time for healthcare leaders to rethink their communication strategies and embrace new technologies (like secure messaging and telehealth) to help them improve the way they deliver care Learning Objectives

• Learn about common communications gaps and the negative impact they have on operations and outcomes
• Find out how you can accelerate operations with better collaboration between units
• Discover how to improve patient experiences with remote communication

A new wave of opportunities related to the use of robotics, machine learning, and AI are available, but for many reasons the health care industry has been slower than many industries to adopt these technologies. Can we afford to take a “wait and see” approach on automation? It's predicted that "automation first" organizations will win their markets – as did Uber vs. taxis in a "mobile first" world and Netflix vs. Blockbuster in a "cloud first" world. But how do you move your organization forward with automation? Join us as we discuss the coming digital workforce and how your organization can prepare now. Learning Objectives:

• Define major categories of modern automation techniques: AI (artificial intelligence), Blockchain, ML (machine learning) and RPA (robotic process automation)
• Explain how automation is applied into work streams to improve care, patient engagement/satisfaction, and safety while reducing costs
• List innovative automation uses cases for health care providers
