healthsystemCIO.com is the sole online-only publication dedicated to exclusively and comprehensively serving the information needs of healthcare CIOs.
To commemorate the Year of the Nurse (which was extended into 2021) and National Nurses, we offer perspectives from leaders who have walked the walk on the challenges nurses face, the critical role they play in providing patient care, and how their experiences helped shape them.
healthsystemCIO Founder & Editor-in-Chief Anthony Guerra talks with Dr. Kel Pults, Chief Clinical Officer with MediQuant, about the new information sharing requirements for health systems, the high level of M&A activity among those health systems, and how this dynamic has created big challenges for IT professionals.
Operational response to COVID-19 completely disrupted inpatient care – leading health system leaders and CIOs to re-envision what their digital infrastructure needs to look like in the future. Too many legacy networks lacking mobility just can’t keep up with the pace of growing connected devices that now commonly reside in the hospital environment. Secure connectivity will take on new meaning and require a new roadmap moving forward, where there is no “one size fits all” for enablement. In this session, we’ll take a look at how 5G, private networks, edge compute capabilities, and network-as-a-service models will drive real-time connectivity, operational efficiency and data analytics.
Healthcare leaders know they must continue to digitize the patient encounter but there is often uncertainty around where to focus limited resources. In this webinar, leaders discuss strategies for providing patients with the high-level experience they have come to expect from using sites like Amazon and Facebook on what is likely a much smaller IT budget.
You can’t secure what you can’t see. In the past, having visibility into your medical devices simply meant knowing what they are. Today, true visibility means knowing granular details about every connected device in the network, understanding the risks they bring, mapping exactly what they are doing in the network and monitoring how they are being utilized. This device and behavioral context is foundational to driving the business – addressing compliance frameworks, mitigating risks from device vulnerabilities, supporting procurement decisions and delivering business insights. In this webinar, healthcare leaders will discuss how they are embracing the new medical and connected device visibility to help their organizations improve security and save money, and share how to move forward with a medical device visibility and security project.
