Exchanging information across the healthcare ecosystem and achieving interoperability is a goal and challenge all healthcare organizations share. Developing proper processes and procedures continues to play a larger role in facilitating interoperability, improving patient outcomes, and creating efficiencies.

While healthcare is achieving interoperability in some areas, a critical area of focus should fall on accurate patient identification. The most significant impact of these errors is patients receiving incorrect treatments.

Join Andrew Gettinger, M.D.,Acting Deputy National Coordinator for Health Information Technology and Chief Medical Information Officer (CMIO) at ONC as he addresses the many industry challenges facing patient identification today.  He will also discuss the roles of healthcare leaders, enterprises, physicians, and even patients, as they work together in improving quality outcomes.
