12:25 PM Innovating with Interoperability: How the VA is Leveraging Interoperability to Drive Veteran-Centric, Team-Based Care

Interoperability in healthcare usually means exchanging data; it supports seamless care, which involves accessing data, guiding decisions, and supporting care coordination. These experiences correspond to technical, semantic, and process interoperability. Join Dr. Jonathan Nebeker, Deputy CMIO at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, for a session on how industry and federal initiatives are helping to move the system beyond regulation into seamless care. Learn how the VA is creating new markets for clinical content and services for more efficient care and a better experience for clinicians and patients.

During our Opening Keynote, Dr. Nebeker will discuss how the VA is leveraging technology and interoperability to drive patient-centric, team-based approach to care, including: 

•Standards limitations that are preventing value realization from your own data
•Emerging standards for process control and exchange
•Driving the markets in clinical content to increase value
•Federal initiatives and government-private partnerships
•Seamless care; not just interoperability
