Quality and Safety

EMI Advisors CEO and founder Evelyn Gallego will discuss developing a standardized data exchange to better plan and coordinate maternal care, at her HIMSS23 panel.  

The system was able to generate $2.5M in net new revenue as the clinical insights more fully capture patients' disease burdens.

Nurse/patient ratios in hospital maternity departments are oftentimes inconsistent with national nurse staffing standards, data shows.

Christopher Girardo, LSU Health Shreveport and Ochsner Health fellow, clinical informatics/PRN staff, pathology, previews his HIMSS23 dive into health IT's part in combating sepsis.         

It includes changes intended to protect people exploring MA and Part D coverage from confusing marketing practices.

Jennifer Gaudet Hefele, senior scientist at Booz Allen Hamilton, will show in a HIMSS23 presentation how AI can analyze vast sources of patient narratives.

ROI and quality of care are realized through freeing up capacity for new patients and in being able to focus on more complex cases, says Dr. Anobel Odisho, associate professor of Urology at the University of California, San Francisco, who will be speaking at HIMSS23.  

The rooms will utilize technology to improve the care experience for both patients and clinical staff.

Patients are 61% less likely to be readmitted to the hospital and 53% less likely to visit an ER if their medical records are accessed by providers within 30 days of discharge, says Juan Nanez, RN, Paso del Norte Health Information Exchange director of Programs.  

Telemedicine can help deliver healthcare to the underserved, according to Howard Rubin, CIO at Evara Health, an FQHC.
