Healthcare leaders at last year’s HIMSS global conference and exhibition shared a positive outlook on the growing role of artificial intelligence in healthcare’s ongoing transformation.
This year, HIMSS President and CEO Hal Wolf expects the conversation to advance to key use cases that healthcare organizations are eager to share with their peers. “AI will be a major topic of discussion this year as we continue to see rapid progress in the adoption of AI tools across the health landscape,” he says.
The healthcare technology conference takes place in Las Vegas from March 3 to March 6.
Wolf spoke to HealthTech about what healthcare IT decision-makers may be interested to learn during the three-day event, which includes preconference forums, executive summits, a new Cybersecurity Command Center and more than 300 education sessions.
He also emphasized HIMSS’ commitment to fostering continued digital health improvements, from a new partnership with the Association of Medical Directors of Information Systems to detailed maturity models for member organizations to support their digital transformations.
“Our 120,000-plus members continue to look at HIMSS to be able to pull together the right leadership resources and insights from across the globe to find solutions that meet the evolving needs of health professionals,” he says.
“It’s an educational capability,” Wolf adds. “That’s one of the key strengths of HIMSS, and is why our membership has grown so much globally, and we are excited to continue to expand our educational offerings.”
