One of the key focuses in today’s ever changing world of healthcare is workflow improvement through time management optimization – a message that was highlighted this past week at Imprivata’s inaugural event, HealthCon 2012.
Workflow has become a popular term that we constantly come across, and with today’s
high-tech age, organizations are seeking ways to try and do more with less. In healthcare, few seconds can be the determining factor between life and death.
During HIMSS 2016, I had the opportunity to talk to one of the true leaders in healthcare technology, Craig Richardville, Carolinas HealthCare Systems’ Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer who was recently named CIO of the Year by CHIME and HIMSS. Craig discuses a range of topics including interoperability and security challenges in healthcare, the government’s patient identification efforts, and Carolinas Healthcare Systems’ use of the palm vein biometric patient identity platform, Imprivata PatientSecure.

Used as complementary tools, policies and education can, of course, be useful, but are not techniques that put healthcare IT teams on the offensive.
To help streamline workflows for healthcare organizations who use Epic Community Connect, Imprivata developed Imprivata for Community Connect (ICC), making the process of authenticating into the EHR platform easier and more secure for clinicians while also remaining DEA compliant for electronic prescribing for controlled substances (EPCS).
Security concerns continue to grow for healthcare organizations as systems integrate new technologies and as electronic patient health information (PHI) proliferates all aspects of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). However, increased security measures can quickly turn in to clinical roadblocks as providers spend more time interacting with security barriers and less time face-to-face with patients.
Leading into Patient Safety Awareness Week (March 11-17), a recent survey conducted by Patient Safety & Quality Healthcare (PSQH) and HealthLeaders Media allowed 100 hospitals and health systems to provide insight on how they see the current state of patient identification and registration procedures in their facilities.
