"With HITECH having placed deadlines on the creation of standards regarding interoperability and meaningful use of EHRs,
this seminar will examine what is necessary for entities to come into and remain compliant with the HITECH standard-setting process.”
– Richard G. Korman, Esq., General Counsel/Organizational Integrity Officer, Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center
“Healthcare in the United States is rapidly changing with no clear endpoint. Single payer systems, stimulus funds, PQRI, medical home, declining
reimbursement, aging populations with resulting increase in utilization all will require massive reworking of existing infrastructure and systems. Caught squarely
in the middle is the critical role and function of information systems. At this event, we will revisit the challenges and opportunities associated with the
transition from a retrospective, documentation based system to a proactive, population-based approach.” – Dr. Robert A. Carlson, CIO, Marshfield Clinic
“A superb conference providing a vibrant platform for identifying best in class applications and the technology needed to support it.”
- Dexter W. Shurney, MD, MBA, MPH, Medical Director, Employee Healthcare Plan
“A critical element of a successful EHR implementation is strategically considering how the change will impact future users and how to ensure they are fully
supported through the transition. I look forward to hearing from participants and vendors their strategies and best practices for supporting successful
implementations.” - Jane Dowd, Chief Learning Officer, NorthShore University HealthSystem

“The EHR, for the VA and the DoD has evolved to an expected "utility" in the mangement of clinical care, much like electricity and water-it is essential,

Manager, VHA Office of Health Information
“As more, ARRA driven e-record capabilities, including PHRs, are enabled - the nation will appreciate the value of meanigful use coupled to standardized

“I anticipate that physicians will use smart phones for 80-90% of their work with electronic medical records, versus using a computer and keyboard, to do
work such as viewing clinical data, real-time waveforms, medication list, notes, and critical results notifications; dictation and order entry. Smart phone
technology will “disrupt” the healthcare IT vendor space as this new model usurps the vendor model prevalent in the market today.” - Mark Moffitt, CIO,
