Despite using technology and analytics in their quest for solutions, experts agreed that tech and data only get you so far.

There are still challenges to manage and maturity to build, but machine learning is helping uncover hidden insights and streamline workflows so providers can "use our neurons to take care of patients," said one at HIMSS22.

Oshi Health, a virtual specialty care company specializing in gastrointestinal health, will provide the virtual care. And the eAnalyze dashboard enables users to understand the performance of the eVisit telemedicine platform.

Data input, extraction and analysis by fellow physicians can streamline processes and deliver cost value, says Dr. Amy Ho.

At HIMSS22, Philips unveils its HealthSuite Interoperability and Enterprise Performance Analytics/Performance Bridge products. Konica Minolta automates clinical and administrative radiology tasks.

Dr. Shaun Grannis and Suranga Kasturi talk through a recent study from the Regenstrief Institute and Indiana University showing how machine learning can help inform public health.

Customer satisfaction is also up with Health Catalyst, Epic and Cerner, too – although some clients report challenges related to ease of use for their prebuilt models.
