Medicomp Systems CEO David Lareau says varied data structures and coding systems make transforming the documentation ambient AI creates into usable data for clinical decision-making a challenge.
Robert Havasy, HIMSS' senior director of informatics strategy, says he's interested in how health systems are leveraging AI to assist patients along the care journey, even as they also work to improve provider experience.
Artisight's AI ambient intelligence offerings combine audio and video, sensors and computer vision to create a smart hospital room for patient safety and workflow efficiency. Karie Ryan, DNP, the company's chief nursing officer, explains.
It brings value at every career level, enabling networking for newcomers and offering continuous learning and community for seasoned executives, says Lisa Counsell, HIMSS sales and relationship management VP.
The health system developed a nursing command center enhanced by artificial intelligence that searches patient records for signs of deterioration and rolled it out to all 15 of its hospitals, explains UCHealth's Brittany Cyriacks.
Undergrads and graduates who are interested in healthcare IT can join their local HIMSS chapter for new connections to help them build toward career goals, says Joseph Brown, chair for allied health and HIM at Davenport University.
Stakeholders who are interested in health and technology policy advocacy can join any number of committees or workgroups related to their topic of interest, says HIMSS Senior Director of Public Policy Jonathan French.
One benefit is the ability share ideas and troubleshoot IT problems with other Executive Connect cohorts, says Sophia Brown, RN, founder and CEO of Strategic Informatics Solutions.
Dr. Matt Sakumoto, Nabla's chief clinical product officer, says AI scribes can help doctors be more present during visits, but that hasn't necessarily improved patient experience scores.
In addition to offering EMRAM and other models, HIMSS can support healthcare organizations in achieving digital maturity, says Jill Seys, senior director for North America analytics at HIMSS.
