HIMSS TV

HIMSS25 sessions on change management, the upcoming government spending bill and suggestions for aligning interoperability goals with Trump administration policies are today's topics with our top journalists.

How HIMSS education and programs, such as CIO Connect, can benefit the professional development of healthcare IT specialists at all levels, per Isaiah Nathaniel, SVP and CIO at Delaware Valley Community Health.

The chiefs of three publications go over what they covered on the second day of HIMSS25, including EMRAM Stage 7 awards, the fate of telehealth and precision medicine.

The AI in Healthcare Forum, the Executive Summit and the inaugural Smart Health Transformation event all had a lot to say about artificial intelligence and its impacts. From Las Vegas, the HIMSS Media brand editors offer their perspectives.

AI and other digital tools are easing cognitive burdens for clinicians and enabling leaders to reallocate staff to higher-value tasks, says Whende Carroll, clinical informatics advisor at HIMSS.

The model also underscores closed-loop processes, enhancing AI and telemedicine security, notes Dr Min-Che Tung, chief superintendent of Tungs' Taichung MetroHarbor Hospital.

At HIMSS25 Denise Dauterman, Epic Clinical Systems Lead and Deborah Jacques, informatics nurse specialist, will share how they engaged nurses in implementing EHR modules that reduced redundant and non-meaningful documentation at NYU Langone Health.

Dr. Zafar Chaudry explains, for one thing, how AI algorithms can predict strokes before they happen so physicians can intervene and prevent them. He adds that 20% of his job is sales – convincing colleagues the tech will do the job.

The pre-conference event will offer sessions on patient engagement, the digital divide, SDOH, public health, climate and more. Matt Bishop of Open City Labs and Evelyn Gallego of EMI Advisors offer a preview.

Dr. Zafar Chaudry also discusses how the hospital first trains all staff on up-and-coming tools: Everyone takes an AI course.
