Strengthening Data Security From End To End
4/13/2016
2015 ushered in an explosion of many high-profile security breaches, leaving millions of health records exposed and costing exorbitant amounts in time, money and reputation. One in three Americans, in fact, experienced breaches of their healthcare records last year, with large-scale hacks representing 98 percent of data compromises. Most notably, last year’s cyberattack on Anthem exposed nearly 79 million records, and one at Premera Blue Cross affected 11 million individuals. Both were the result of phishing attacks. The publicity around these events has propelled healthcare to the forefront of IT security discussions, especially as it relates to the protection of personal patient data and what can be done to better protect it.

The Internet of Things (IoT) continues to transform healthcare delivery at an unprecedented pace. An increasingly diverse set of smart devices and communication-enabled sensors is bringing hospitals greater awareness of the medical devices, equipment, clinicians, staff and patients in their care delivery environments. They also are generating a wealth of data that they can use to re-engineer delivery models to become more dynamic, efficient and responsive to patient needs—driving lower costs and higher patient satisfaction.

Moving Beyond Interoperability To Data Analysis For Better Patient Care
2/2/2015
Consider the following scenario: A patient receives a computed axial tomography (CAT) scan in an effort to obtain a detailed, precise image of some bothersome kidney stones. The patient then takes a compact disc loaded with the image to her outpatient surgery center, where the kidney stone procedure will take place. The clinicians at the surgery center can’t read the CD— and, therefore, proceed with the surgery using a sub-standard picture that the patient’s husband had stored on his phone. The patient ends up leaving the surgery with the doctor saying: “I think we got it all but I am not sure.”
