At the Health IT Summit in San Diego, Pondering What It Will Take to Get to “Patient-Centric”

Patient-centered care initiatives are going to require strong data and analytics to support their success

It was an honor and a pleasure to moderate a discussion panel on Monday at the Health IT summit in San Diego (sponsored by the Institute for Health Technology Transformation, or iHT2—a sister organization of Healthcare Informatics under our corporate umbrella parent, the Vendome Group). The title of that discussion? “HIT & Analytics: Enabling Patient-Centered Care.”

I couldn’t have had a more distinguished and on-target panel. With me were Harris Stutman, M.D., executive director, clinical informatics, and CMIO, at MemorialCare (Long Beach, Calif.); Lori Posk, M.D., medical director for MyChart, Cleveland Clinic (Cleveland, Oh.); and Stan Huff, M.D., CMIO, Intermountain Healthcare (Salt Lake City).  All three medical informaticists have been deeply and broadly involved in helping to lead their colleagues forward in a variety of important initiatives. For the full article click here
