PODCAST: A HIMSS18 Preview with a Conference Veteran

March 1, 2018

With the HIMSS18 conference coming up in just a few days in Las Vegas, we talk to Editor-in-Chief Mark Hagland, who has been attending the conference for nearly 30 years.

Healthcare Informatics’ own Editor-in-Chief, Mark Hagland, has been going to HIMSS (the Chicago-based Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society) conferences since 1991, meaning few people could match his stories from the trade-show trenches.

With the HIMSS18 conference coming up in just a few days in Las Vegas, Hagland is as good a person as any to preview what to expect, what he has learned over the years, and how the conference continues to change.

On this quick 10-minute podcast, Hagland and I discuss the health IT policy and payment landscape as it relates to the buzz that could be present at HIMSS18; the latest and greatest innovations we’re looking forward to checking out this year; and what else we could be in store for during the busiest health IT week of the year.

Keep in mind, you can listen to all Healthcare Informatics podcasts right here.
