Massive Interoperability: High-Performance Data Sharing at Scale

Data is the lifeblood of healthcare delivery. But in an era of single EHR systems, is data integration still an issue?

In this session, experts from three large Integrated Delivery Networks – Ascension, Intermountain, and Mass General Brigham – offer a resounding yes. The panelists will describe how data flows across multiple facilities, software systems and devices, while ensuring their organizations can continue to grow and scale a connected health business. They’ll review interoperability challenges faced with integrating multiple EHR systems as well as after moving to a single EHR system. Fundamental considerations such as access, scalability and performance, as well as the challenges of system migration will also be discussed.

Learning objectives:

Describe how these organizations overcame challenges while achieving interoperability, even after moving to a single EHR system
Discuss the impact of new and diverse data sources such as wearables and devices on data integration demands
Share issues on information management and governance related to system adoption and migration
