Interviews & Webinars with Health System IT Leaders
There’s an old parenting saying, “Do as I say, not as I do.” Of course, it’s meant to get parents off the hook for not demonstrating the behavior they want emulated. Unfortunately, it rarely works, as the disconnect between talk and action isn’t lost on the little ones. When it comes to recent conferences, some […]
We had moved into our house only two years before, and this was getting ridiculous. It was 2012 and – between Hurricane Sandy and a crazy ice/snowstorm that followed close on its heels – we had lost power at our home in New Jersey for a total of about 10 days. And when you have […]
Effective cybersecurity strategy starts with developing an adversarial mindset and understanding the likely first and last steps a bad actor will take when entering and exiting a network, according to Intermountain VP/CISO Erik Decker, who made the comments at the 2024 HIMSS Global Conference during a session entitled, “Break the Attack Chain: Understanding Cybercriminals’ Focus […]
Then only thing that’s constant is change, which means the key is being observant. At least that seems to be the key when navigating the industry’s changing mega-conference dynamic. In the spring, there used to be just HIMSS, with the CHIME Spring Forum affixed to the front-end. Now, CHIME partners with HLTH on ViVE. With […]

This discussion will cover the journey of AI in healthcare, highlighting its historical development, current applications, and future potential. It will address the technological advancements in AI, such as deep learning and predictive analytics, and their impact on patient care and operational efficiencies.

At HIMSS, John Gaede, CIO, San Juan Regional Medical Center, will talk about a real ransomware attack that took Sky Lakes Medical Center’s EMR offline for 23 days, and how the healthcare industry has tended to keep the impacts of cybercrime on patient care on the low-down.
At HIMSS23, Heather O’Sullivan, MS, RN, President, Mass General Brigham-Healthcare at Home, will address how health systems can scale up their Hospital at Home models and how Mass General Brigham has been able to unlock growth and progress toward our scale goals.
Providence’s virtual care and digital health portfolio includes a broad range of clinical products and services; thus, we have been afforded the opportunity to speak on a number of different aspects of care delivery at HIMSS. Eve Cunningham, MD, Group VP, President and Chief of Virtual Care/Digital Health, will discuss how to navigate the challenges of the clinical product development lifecycle within a large and complex, non-profit health system.
As the old expression goes, time is money. For executives like Keith Duemling, Senior Director of Cybersecurity Technology Protection, Cleveland Clinic, time is also about focus. That’s why he’s laser focused while at shows like HIMSS on finding ways to better protect the clinic’s patients and their data. To that end, exhibit floor games that […]
