There has been tremendous progress in healthcare IT interoperability, but this video is a stark reminder of how much more we need to do to better support patients, caregivers, and their providers. Health information exchange is about more than just the technical connections, it also requires policy and culture support for sharing clinical data when and where it is needed.Anna McCollister, who is on the board of directors at The Sequoia Project and who leads and cochairs their consumer engagement strategy workgroup, shares her personal experiences in this video. Her story inspires empathy for patients dealing with difficult illnesses, and particularly the outrageous difficulties in getting their data to the doctors who need it to make informed care decisions.Thanks to her long-earned expertise as a patient advocate and health IT nerd, McCollister is an extremely informed patient. However, even she needed to be reminded of the “magic words” to resolve her most recent information blocking problem. She points out that the provider denying her the information didn't even know the concept of “information blocking,” which has been a focus of HHS for years.Watch the video for McCollister's fascinating story and the philosophy guiding the consumer engagement strategy workgroup at The Sequoia Project.Learn more about the Sequoia Project:https://sequoiaproject.org/Healthcare IT Today:https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

It was understandable that much of the discussion in 2024 focused on how and where healthcare was falling short on cybersecurity. In general, healthcare had not prioritized or invested in cybersecurity compared to other regulated critical industries like banking and transportation. Healthcare IT Today thought it would be interesting to flip the script on cybersecurity in healthcare. Instead of focusing on where we needed to improve, we wanted to hear where we were doing well. We reconnected with Steve Cagle, CEO at Clearwater, the largest pure-play provider of cybersecurity and compliance solutions for the healthcare industry. We spoke to Cagle at ViVE2024 about the Change Healthcare incident, so it was fitting we spoke to him at the end of 2024. Here his response to the question – What is healthcare doing well when it comes to cybersecurity?Learn more about Clearwater athttps://clearwatersecurity.com/Find more great health IT content athttps://www.healthcareittoday.com/

One of the most common questions we get from healthcare IT startups is how they can connect with EHR vendors. One of our most common questions we ask health IT startups is how they integrate with the EHR. One of the answers to this question for startup companies is FHIR. Certainly the FHIR standard is still maturing to include more data, but the data in the current FHIR standards can solve a lot of data access challenges for startup companies. If the data your startup needs is in FHIR, then the great thing is that pretty much every certified EHR can support FHIR access to that data (thanks EHR certification). With this as background, I was excited to learn about a new Predictive AI in Healthcare with FHIR contest that's being held by the FHIR experts at Darena Solutions. The contest is pretty simple. Predictive AI app developers just have to leverage the MeldRx platform to connect their application using SMART on FHIR to healthcare systems. The great news is that there are $25,000 in cash prizes available for the winners of the contest. Plus, there are a number of in-kind prizes available including from Healthcare IT Today. The grand prize winner will be featured in a video interview on Healthcare IT Today ($4200 value). For more details on the contest and how you can enter for a chance to win $25,000 in cash prizes and a number of in-kind prizes, check out the Predictive AI in Healthcare with FHIR Devpost site: https://meldrx-predictive-ai.devpost.com/ Learn more about MeldRx: https://www.meldrx.com/

One of the questions we get asked a lot by new digital health entrepreneurs here at Healthcare IT Today is whether building on top of FHIR will mean a solution will be interoperable. The answer, sadly, is no. Healthcare remains a mishmash of data formats. Andrea Kowalski, Chief Product Officer at 1upHealth, shares this pragmatic view on the state of interoperability. While the promise of FHIR as a universal data standard is enticing, Kowalski recommends digital health companies accommodate multiple data formats (including FHIR) so that their solutions can be adopted by healthcare providers TODAY. Kowalski also shared how 1upHealth's platform simplifies the complex work of interoperability, enabling startups and healthcare organizations to focus on innovation rather than the intricacies of data exchange.
