DHIN Summer Summit, Finding the Humans in Health IT
A landscape review of what HHS, ONC, and other gov't agencies are focused on vs. what the health IT industry is working on and how ML, AI fit into the overall picture.
on answering these questions? • Should we go into at-risk (downside, too not just upside) contracts? Is the uncertainty tolerable? • Will our current pricing allow us to maintain the margins necessary for us to stay in business? • Can we bear the scrutiny of pricing transparency? THIS IS THE HARD STUFF! @ShahidNShah
Health IT create “interruptions at scale”? AI / ML / Telemedicine / Messaging creates significant opportunity for increased unnecessary interruptions if not properly designed for multiple stakeholder workflows @ShahidNShah
goals of health IT should be to increase patient education, answer questions in a timely manner, improve patient outcomes, reduce patients’ administrative burdens, and increase staff productivity by allowing staff to focus on the neediest patients. @ShahidNShah
we move from “institution first” to “patient first” or “patient centered” health IT? Hint: it’s not about patient engagement. It’s about transparency and outcomes. @ShahidNShah
