(1888PressRelease) November 21, 2019 - HIMSS will organize the HIMSS Australian Digital Health Summit 2019, supported by the Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA). The Summit will look into how data can be leveraged effectively and safely in healthcare to drive innovation. The main focus area of the Summit is interoperability and connected care. The Summit will discuss how the healthcare sector stands to benefit from interoperable health systems and how patient outcomes can be improved with connected care.

The date for the Event: 20.11.2019 (Wednesday) (CXO Dialogue by invitation only) - 21.11.2019 (Thursday)

Venue for the Event: ICC Sydney, 14 Darling Dr, Sydney NSW, Australia 2000

The theme for the Event: The Australian Digital Healthcare Summit 2019 is being organized to offer a platform for healthcare leaders to discuss “The Now and Next of Digital Health.” The Summit will bring together representatives from ADHA, public and private healthcare leaders in Australia.

The main theme of the Summit is Interoperability and connected care. Interoperability and connected care are especially relevant now with the implementation of My Health Record (MHR) by ADHA.

The exchange of data from MHR across different entities will provide benefits such as empowering the patient to take more control of their healthcare journey, facilitating connected care, etc. It will help enhance the healthcare providers’ accessibility to health data, thus improving the quality and efficiency of treatment.

However, Interoperability brings with it its own set of challenges such as cybersecurity and issues related to data communication and interpretation.

The Summit is convened to discuss this and more, and thought leaders will share their knowledge and experiences to learn and address the challenges of the now and next in digital health.
