The future of medicine is not just about drugs and procedures but DATA.
What do HOSPITALS and HEALTH PLANS need to do become data-driven organizations? Why is it critical for hospitals and health plans to collaborate on their data initiatives in order to become data-driven organizations?

The World Congress Leadership Summit on Strategies for Data-Driven Health Care Organizations is designed to address the opportunities and challenges for hospitals and health plans in managing both financial and clinical data in today’s new health care environment. With an increased focus on accountability and the adoption of EHRs, data is now a strategic asset for health plans and hospitals. The challenge of managing the data extends well beyond ensuring that the data resides in a database that has analytic tools.  All purchasers of care need to use clinical, financially administrated and self reported data to improve the quality of care by reduction of medical errors, predicting trends and demonstrating the comparative value of drugs and treatments.

This two day event will feature visionary keynote addresses, controversial debates, case studies, workshops, seminars, tracks and informal roundtable discussions addressing:

• Collecting financial and clinical data
• How to collect data to comply with the new Medicare criteria and payments to physician practices
• What are some of the privacy and security issues that have to be considered?
• Who should be accessing?
• The value of using secondary data
• ICD-10 implementation – where do we start?
• Compliance – what are the regulations?
