With a heightened awareness of health inequities, there has been an increase the in the identification of social determinants of health (SDOH) data for inclusion in care processes. However, there is little guidance on how to implement the use of these data within clinical workflows.

Join HIMSS on October 26 at 12:00 pm CT to learn more about SDOH implementation use cases using dyads consisting of vendors of SDOH tools and healthcare providers that have implemented the tools. We will also discuss the SDOH needs from a community health practice, including the sharing of SDOH data across practice settings. The overall purpose is to share best practices and discuss lessons learned to support nurses involved in SDOH activities and organizations looking to implement.

Join the HIMSS South Carolina Chapter on October 26 – 27 starting at 7:00 am CT for their annual fall conference, with this year’s theme, “Making an Impact!” Collective healthcare organizations - large and small - have been working tirelessly to address public health and to continue innovating.  At SCHIMSS, they are committed to telling the stories of colleagues and educating their members and partners on healthcare and healthcare IT. This year’s event is set to be our best yet with a planned in person event! 

Join us for our second-annual InterSystems Virtual Summit to learn about our vision for innovations in data.

You'll hear from thought leaders and customers from around the world to help you make better sense of your data and inspire you to achieve more. Join us for keynotes, roadmaps, focus sessions, and experience labs.

[For Providers] Health Innovator Jordan Dolin shares value-based care solutions to empower hypertension and other chronic condition patients

With more than half of American adults suffering from high blood pressure, hypertension is the silent "other" pandemic facing the world today. But hypertension is just one of several chronic conditions that are demanding a change in how providers must empower their patients to adopt long-term behavioral change.

Join guest speaker Jordan Dolin as he explores the key reasons behind patients' failure to stay on track with their chronic care medication, lifestyle changes and healthcare. A Q&A session will follow his presentation.

• A successful serial entrepreneur dedicated to healthcare innovation, Jordan will discuss topics such as the...
• Economic and logistics challenge faced by many patients with chronic diseases
• Misinformation or lack of information also faced by healthcare consumers
• Changes in behavior and patient mindset widely overlooked by healthcare systems
• Technology and analytics-driven solutions that can improve care team efficiency
• Hypertension case study: a review of the benefits of a data- driven, consumer-centric approach to empowering hypertensive patients
• Road ahead for healthcare providers on the front line

The digital transformation of a healthcare technology management (HTM) program must focus on value delivery, resource optimization, performance measurement, and assurance process integration.

This event will be moderated by Danielle McGeary (AAMI). This is a complimentary webinar by the Health Technology Alliance, a coalition between ACCE, HIMSS and AAMI.

Join us for four inspiring days of learning, exploring and co-creating solutions to bring coherence to the fragmented picture of patient involvement in digital health. The European Patients’ Forum has been representing patients’ voices in a united and influential way over the past 18 years to drive better health in Europe. This event will provide an exceptional opportunity for dialogue and engagement with a wide range of health players who aspire to showcase patient-led innovation. Together, we will explore what meaningful patient involvement means in a rapidly changing healthcare environment using new technologies, and why it is critical to successful innovation.

It has been six years since our first panel discussion addressing the growing and alarming rise of cybersecurity threats to healthcare. In the ensuing years, data breaches and ransomware attacks continue to plague the industry. In fact, through double extortion, the two attacks are often combined.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the increased usage of telehealth and connected personal and medical devices have led to an exponential volume of incidents, enticing more malicious actors and more sophisticated attacks. And while technology advancements in Cloud, IoT, and 5G offer organizations the chance to modernize their IT infrastructure, cybersecurity threats are advancing on parallel lines as digital healthcare evolves.

On this year’s panel discussion, our experts from around the industry will discuss the challenges healthcare organizations face, what the future may hold, and what can be done to fortify security protocols and guardrails to minimize risk.
