HIMSS24

Arnab Sen, chief strategy officer of Omega Healthcare, talks about how technology can help healthcare organizations boost productivity, make the treatment process easier for patients to understand and reduce clinician burnout.  

The import of pre-health systems has only exacerbated the need for changes in technology and nurse input, says Connie White Delaney, dean and professor at the University of Minnesota School of Nursing.  

AI, technology to improve maternal health outcomes and funding for public health data modernization are big topics at HIMSS24, says Tom Leary, SVP and head of government relations at HIMSS.  

The lack of corporate oversight and structure found in many large corporations allows Ozarks Healthcare to implement policies and workflows with more agility, says Dr. Priscilla Frase, CMIO at the independent, rural health organization and 2024 HIMSS Changemaker Award recipient.  

Nursing informatics has evolved and integrated with information and analytical science to provide support and decision-making, says Mary Joy Garcia-Dia, program director of nursing informatics at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.  

Every layer of healthcare, from back-office automation to drug discovery, has been enabled by AI, says Sumit Nagpal, CEO, cofounder and board director at Cherish Health.  

The INFRAM adoption model measures how well an organization infrastructure meets objectives of risk and performance requirements, says Philip Bradley, digital health strategist at HIMSS.

Patient delays erode quality of care and value for the hospital, says Dr. Will O'Connor, CMIO at TigerConnect, a company that offers a clinical communication platform.  

The system can be customized and is paid through a predictable pricing model, says Sandra Johnson, SVP for client services at CliniComp.  

The hospital room of the future is about using sensors to augment information for the caregivers, says Michael Brandofino, president and COO of Caregility.
