Interoperability: Fueling Digital Health Innovation with Data
Information
Digital health continues to draw billions in investment each year, with an increasing percentage of digital health startups leveraging AI as part of their offering. And while most health systems are concentrating their EHR investments on a single vendor, patient health data is more and more fragmented as information is spread across retail care settings, smart devices, and digital health powered virtual-first providers.
For innovators to thrive, they need clean, comprehensive information from multiple sources, normalized and matched to the correct identifiers. It’s no wonder that regulatory levers and funding initiatives have put so much emphasis on interoperability – from investment in HL7 FHIR standards development to TEFCA and national networks.
This conversational panel will consider the challenges of obtaining, managing, and using health information for innovation, and the opportunities that data powers.
