    Session Description:

    In 2020, a Deloitte survey and roundtable with clinical leaders on the implications of virtual health adoption on the practice of medicine, consumer expectations, and care delivery models supported the notion that the Future of Health had been accelerated about 5 years closer than originally predicted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    These implications have been particularly evident regarding efforts to manage COVID-19 patients, with other high-touch, chronic disease areas quickly gaining traction. However, if we look beyond care management, virtual health has the potential to play a central role in supporting elder populations in aging safely, independently, and comfortably from their own home.

    We invite you to join us in this interactive session around the proliferation of virtual health as a catalyst for the transformation of aging in place and the unique consumer preferences and limitations of this population.

    Description:

    As virtual and remote care strategies become cemented in healthcare organizations’ near and long-term plans, it’s no longer optional for these programs to be integrated within primary data and workflow operations.

    What you’ll learn:
    1. Why prioritizing interoperability is foundational to the success of these programs

    Session Description:

    Success with outstanding metrics is the measure of performance of I.T. but they don’t always translate to end users feeling that I.T. is doing a good job. CIOs and IT Leaders are constantly fighting a battle of perception with their organizations and user population. The data looks great, but leadership is exhausting themselves, and their staff, having to respond to complaints about poor experiences from the users and their managers. The truth is, you could have the greatest metrics and data around your performance but if those you serve are not happy, you’re not successfully delivering a consistent quality service. There is an answer and a path to winning over your organization and those you serve.

    Session Description:

    As hospitals strive to stay ahead of ever-increasing cyber threats, and at the same time gain a deeper understanding of recent Executive Orders and NIST-accelerated focus, it has become clear that automation of security and compliance functions will have to play a pivotal role in securing patient and business information. Relying on manual processes, disconnected sources of risk data and static documents to manage a highly dynamic cybersecurity and compliance environment is creating more problems than solutions. So, what are the options? Can you automate key functions and processes to deliver a comprehensive, standards-based information security program? Is there an effective way to create a normalized, enterprise-wide “single pane of glass” view of risks and threats regardless of the source? If so, what is the best approach and will automation deliver sufficient ROI?

    Join us as we explore the different types of security and compliance program automation that can benefit healthcare – what is a must have, what is a nice to have and how do we get there?
