EHRs

This healthcare IT mega-corporation was started as a limited liability parody – a good natured attempt to shed satirical light on the underlying reasons for the ridiculously low adoption of electronic health records, personal health records, e-prescribing systems and other HCIT solutions.

Going live on a new Electronic Health Record (EHR), is one of the most critical aspects of the overall implementation.  It HAS to be successful.   The costs and morale issues associated with a go-live gone bad are significant.  The vendor you select for the planning and execution of the go-live is another critical factor.  If you select a vendor with a methodology in place, and an experienced team by your side, your organization can mitigate the stress and disruptions that can occur during go-live. The Leidos Health Go-Live team has successfully delivered over 480 unique go-live projects consisting of over 9,200 elbow support.   Many of the resources have worked with Leidos Health on more than 20 projects.  As a result of this experience, Leidos Health has learned and developed best practices for implementing an EHR Go-Live event. During this webinar you will hear from an experienced organization with real-world examples and best practices to help you successfully complete a go-live engagement.  

74% of Healthcare organizations report leveraging the Cloud to achieve financial savings and operational efficiencies. However, recent findings show over 60% of these organizations are experiencing Cloud adoption challenges and are not realizing the advantages of the Cloud.

Join Healthcare IT veterans from Microsoft & Synoptek, as they share best practices to help you overcome high risk Cloud challenges and achieve higher levels of operational efficiency, security, and  HIPAA compliance in the Cloud.

Healthcare payers and providers gain the most value from a secure, enterprise-class, Hybrid Cloud solution with complete freedom to migrate workloads to the Cloud at their own pace - and even back and forth at will.  Oracle Enterprise Cloud Architects will discuss the healthcare requirements of an Enterprise-class Hybrid Cloud solution, the value of Oracle’s Hybrid Cloud Platform, and Healthcare-specific customer use cases.

The University of Kansas Health System has reached exceptional levels of availability and performance with its Epic EHR environment by installing all-flash arrays from Pure Storage alongside Cisco UCS servers and networking.  As a result of this transformation, the health system has exceeded the Epic performance requirements, reduced downtimes, given application-development teams more flexibility, and slashed the time it takes to generate key reports.  This webcast will provide an overview of their transition, key decision points and lessons learned, and a look into their roadmap for the future.

Customer service, account management and long-term value for the investment are among the key points in developing a good vendor relationship.

HL7 is growing as a wide-ranging solution to the requirement for improved interoperability. But merely conforming to HL7 specifications is not enough to deliver superior ITperformance.

After an insightful update and examination of HL7 from a standards perspective, this educational session will discuss strategies that are working in service assurance.  Strategies that will be discussed include building bridges with other departments and assessing business needs.  Attendees will learn how HL7 can be leveraged for optimized IT service assurance.    

Mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and fiscal pressures are forcing many healthcare executives to evaluate how, when and with whom to affiliate to provide a comprehensive continuum of care.

With the proliferation of "shadow IT" – in which individual departments bring rogue applications into the enterprise –  it’s more important than ever for healthcare IT leaders to improve application effectiveness. This educational session will discuss strategies that are working, including building bridges with other departments, assessing business needs and ensuring that current applications are meeting the performance objectives of individual departments.

When it comes to designing a future-ready infrastructure, healthcare IT leaders need to dream big.  If you haven’t explored how your organization can implement a cloud solution, now is the time to think outside the box—and enable IT to move at the speed of business.  Citrix is partnering with Microsoft to help IT leaders take advantage of cloud benefits at a pace that’s right for them.
