What you'll learn
According to new research from HIMSS about innovation, U.S. hospitals are most widely prioritizing initiatives to drive operational, procedural and financial efficiencies, as well as enhance the patient experience. To fully realize these aspirations requires a coordinated mix of people, processes, technology and partners. In exploring the role of the IT decision maker today, this part of the "Anatomy of Innovation" series will discuss how health systems can best align their IT agenda and workflow priorities to advance digital health innovation.
Join the conversation to learn more about:
- What’s on the IT agenda for 2020
- How innovation is being strategized and driven in healthcare
- Difficulties ITDMs face in efforts to balance innovation with day-to-day responsibilities
- Strategies to address innovation challenges
