The future of healthcare in the US is based on an assumption that every health IT system can interoperate with every other health IT system—which would enable better care coordination and reduce costs. But how far along are we at actually achieving full interoperability and what can we do to get there?

Attendees of this webinar will first hear from Andrea Darby, the System VP of IT Integration - Applications at OhioHealth, about OhioHealth’s strategy to achieve interoperability within its own four walls. Then, attendees will hear from Wes Rishel, former VP and Distinguished Analyst at Gartner, who will frame the larger challenge and strategy of achieving interoperability not just within an organization’s four walls, but also between organizations, and with payers, HIEs, and state and federal health agencies.

Finally, attendees will hear from Mark LaRow, CEO of Verato, who will introduce the newest frontier of interoperability—called “identity interoperability”—and discuss counterintuitive ways that organizations can achieve it.
