Data Warehousing

The establishment of the cross-border data space follows the recent formation of a digital health alliance in the area.

HIMSS senior digital health advisor Widi Salim says the AMAM24 now helps hospitals shift their focus from data to actual analytics outcomes.

"Both the image and the report have to be available to anyone involved in the care of the patient, at any time from anywhere – including the patient," says the health system's chief health informatics officer Dr. David Kaelber in a HIMSS25 preview.

Professor Jin-Young Park, director of Yonsei University's Yongin Severance Hospital, explains the interconnection of their various smart-technology solutions.

South Korea's National Institute of Health has established a big health database that researchers can tap into to develop new technologies, says director Dr Hyun-Young Park.

The chief information and digital strategy officer explains what achieving certification under the Joint Commission's Responsible Use of Health Data initiative means for Inova's privacy and security practices, and AI data governance.

Lee Kim, senior principal for cybersecurity and privacy at HIMSS, says hospitals and health systems need to effectively make use of their whole cybersecurity staff, whether it's a team of 50, five – or even a single person.

Konyang University Hospital, one of South Korea's designated centres for safe health data access and use for research, is increasing AI deployments to harness big data, says CIO Dr Yongsuk Kim.

Paul Wilder of CommonWell Health Alliance explains why providers are still stuck in document exchange and says he is hopeful that the ability to ensure B2B data security at scale is about two years away.

Cybersecurity expert Richard Staynings of the University of Denver says the clinical information used for AI-enabled decision support models needs to be protected – but that's a tall order with so much of it to manage.
