Leveraging Technology For Better Interoperability: Harnessing The Power Of FHIR & Blockchain

Sponsored by ODH, Inc. How to effectively and efficiently exchange information is a key competency for future success for most health and human service organizations. But, there are many impediments to developing technology infrastructure that supports data exchange and management of value-based care. In this luncheon briefing, we’ll look at how two developments – the evolution of Fast Health Interoperability Resource (FHIR) and of the blockchain – will play a role in defining effective health information exchange in the future. The session will provide some context of how FHIR and blockchain are currently being used – and give examples of future roles in health information exchange (HIE). Participating executives will also have the opportunity to engage in a discussion session on the state-of-the-art in HIE, the shifting market environment, and hands-on examples of working with these new technologies. This session features industry insights from Michael Jarjour, Chief Executive Officer at ODH, Inc.; Adam Johnson, Executive Technology and Product Development at ODH, Inc.; Daniel J. Paolini, Chief Information Officer at DBHIDS, John Falsetti, Director of IT at Maryville Academy and Rakesh Mathew, MS, MBA, CPHIMS, Program Manager, HealthShare Exchange.
