Solving the Puzzle: Patient Focused Clinical Care;

Business and Technical Reality

Oct 17-19, 2010, Minneapolis, MN

Clinicians and HIT staff are continually challenged to keep their focus on the patient in the midst of all the new technology in their hospitals and clinics. Community and public health professionals are finding new ways to use technology to keep people healthy – and avoid becoming “patients.” This conference will bring together health professionals to share their experiences, ideas, plans and breakthrough technologies – all aimed at using systems and technology to help us refocus on health needs of patients and the public.
