Breaking Barriers to Adoption

Did you know a 100-bed hospital utilizes hundreds of interfaces to transfer patient data from department-to-department? Standards-based interoperable systems reduce costs, maintenance and improves patient centered care. Information is powerful! However, to break the barriers to adoption, stakeholders must realize and embrace the benefits of interoperability.



The HIMSS11 Interoperability Showcase advocates adoption through a variety of educational opportunities and networking.
