Electronic Health Records (EHR, EMR)

Refining large language models is where the rubber meets the road for artificial intelligence such as GPT, says Manny Krakaris, CEO of Augmedix. "You don't want the model to extrapolate."

Danielle Pieloch and Kumar Aditya, who will be speaking at HIMSS23, discuss how a "schedule first, then authorize approach" triggers an automated prior authorization workflow that reduces wait times for radiology services at Atlantic Health System.

The agency hopes the NPRM provisions will further move the needle on interoperability, expanding "appropriate access, exchange and use of electronic health information" with an eye toward health equity, said the National Coordinator for Health IT.

The partners will use natural language processing technology and de-identified EHR data better to help the agency research how medications affect large populations.

Mike Sicilia, EVP of Oracle Global Industries, describes what the company has been prioritizing since the Cerner acquisition finalized this past June, and previews what it will be showcasing on the HIMSS23 exhibit floor in Chicago this month.

"PCPs can see that patient’s data in the population health pool, within whatever ambulatory EHR they are using, and as an integral part of their clinical workflow," says the health system's CIO.

The University of Kansas Health System has boosted overall block utilization by 20% total, prime time by almost 5% total and overall volume by 8% – all with a 7% reduction in available room.

Real-world data is key to driving effective response to emerging health threats, says Dr. Monique Mansoura, executive director of global health security and biotechnology at MITRE, who will lead a discussion on the topic at HIMSS23.

The efficiencies and improvements the provider gained with the new EHR were just the tip of the iceberg. Launching its own managed services organization was the big win.

It plans to focus instead on accelerating the deployment of its medical IT solutions.
