Health Technology: The Future is Now HIMSS19

In the coming year of 2019, there is so much to look forward to globally in health technology at HIMSS19 and continue the conversation beyond. The future of health technology seems to move a little bit faster each year and the number of tools or platforms to monitor can feel a bit pressing from any perspective. However, my focus will be on artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, wearables and augmented reality (AR) as all hold my interest due to their growth potential. They all have practical applications for clinicians and patients, as well as chief information officers who are investing time and research into security. Plus, all have opportunities for implementation in the coming years with the ultimate goal of moving into real word practice and education.
