HIMSS24

Whende Carroll, clinical informatics advisor, HIMSS, offers a preview of upcoming HIMSS24 sessions on ethics and AI in nursing, and discusses how AI and virtual care technology can empower patients and mitigate the effects of nursing shortages.  

At HIMSS24, the medical AI vendor has unveiled the next generation of its medical AI platform, a collaborative effort between medical expertise and the best that artificial intelligence has to offer, its CEO says.

Use cases are emerging and showing promising results, but that means organizations need to be ready for change.

The three-year collaborative relationship is for Electronic Medical Record adoption in hospitals throughout the country.

Engaging leaders and holding managers accountable can improve workplace culture and employee mental health in positive ways.

Telehealth, wearables and artificial intelligence all hold promise to increase access to care for underserved populations.

Experts discussed new emergency department models using telemedicine to build trust in virtual healthcare environments and public-private sector collaboration.  

Experts shared insights into leadership and management strategies for change, with a focus on mindset shifts and care-model modifications that can enhance patient experience and safety.  

"Patients want great health and compassionate care easily delivered," says Dr. Amy Compton-Phillips.

That's the message Talkdesk VP Patty Hayward is sending at HIMSS24, because, she says, contact centers have a high impact on patient experience, offer nonclinical use cases for AI, and keep humans in the loop.
