Lexington, Mass.—April 13. 2015—A recent forum sponsored by Imprivata® (NYSE: IMPR), the healthcare IT security company, and hosted by the Massachusetts Health Data Consortium focused on two technology-based strategies—Prescription Monitoring Programs (PMPs) and Electronic Prescribing of Controlled Substances (EPCS)—to help address the national opiate abuse epidemic.     

The panelists, who spoke to a full room of thought leaders from healthcare, government, academia and industry, included:

Health data security, HIPAA compliance, analytics, business intelligence and big data, and cloud-based services -- these are the areas in which health IT executives plan most of their investment these days.

And it's not EHRs anymore that occupy the biggest mind share of those making the buying decisions at large medical centers, hospitals and ambulatory care providers.

More than 1,000 health IT vendors will showcase their technology solutions at the HIMSS15 Annual Conference & Exhibition, the largest event in the health IT industry, in Chicago from April 12-16.

Healthcare IT specialist Imprivata will be showcasing its technologies at the upcoming  2015 HIMSS Annual Conference & Exhibition. The company says that in addition to highlighting its currently available products and solutions, it will also be showing off some new technologies.

Cloud computing and virtualization may be trending terms in the information technology world and piquing interest in the healthcare industry.

In fact, some in healthcare may use the terms “cloud” and “virtualization” interchangeably as if they represent complementary or similar functionality.
