From enhanced EHRs to AI initiatives to new programs like RPM and virtual care, healthcare leaders are dealing with more data, structured and unstructured, than they’ve ever had before. This week’s panel takes a look at how to manage that data, separating value from noise and putting information in the right hands at the right time.
Before AI or any other new technology, there is data. And if healthcare executives don’t know how to manage their data, those new ideas won’t work.
This week’s The Winning Edge takes a look at how health systems and hospitals collect, store, assess and eventually use data, the backbone to all clinical and financial activities in the healthcare enterprise. Alongside information stored in the EHR and other technology platforms, healthcare leaders need to know how to gather and manage unstructured data coming into the system, separating value from noise and giving clinicians and others in the healthcare enterprise what they need.
And as AI and other new ideas like remote patient monitoring (RPM), digital health and patient engagement take hold, data management is becoming more important. Health systems and hospitals are dealing with more data than they’ve ever had in the past, and they’re being asked to do more with it.
HealthLeaders’ The Winning Edge will take place on Tuesday, September 30, at 1 p.m. ET. This week’s panel features distinguished experts from two large health systems: Sarah Pletcher, MD, MHCDS, Chief Digital Health Officer & System VP and Executive Medical Director of Innovation at Houston Methodist; and Roopa Foulger, Vice President of Digital & Innovation Development at OSF HealthCare.
Please join us for an informative hour on a topic that every healthcare innovation and technology executive should value.
Eric Wicklund is the senior editor for technology at HealthLeaders.
