🌟 Last week in Georgia was incredible! I had the privilege of spending time with our amazing clients in Atlanta, diving deep into strategies to optimize patient access. We’ve been focused on leveraging performance management, AI/automation, and human-centered design to drive better outcomes for both patients and our internal customers. 🚀🤝 The Georgia HIMSS Fall Conference was the cherry on top! 🍒 It was fantastic to see so many brilliant minds from the Georgia HIT community come together under one roof. The energy, insights, and connections made it clear that we’re all united in our mission to push healthcare forward. 🙌 The highlight for me was the Georgia #CIO Roundtable, expertly moderated by Chris Paravate, MBA, CHCIO, PMP, CPHIMS, CDH-E from Northeast Georgia Health System. The panel included Geoffrey Brown from #Piedmont Health, Alistair Erskine MD MBA from #Emory Healthcare, Nolan Hennessy from St. Joseph’s/Candler, and Atul Kanvinde, MSIE MBA CHCIO CDH-E from #ShepherdCenter. Their discussions on innovation and strategy in healthcare were truly inspiring! 🎙️💡 Feeling grateful to be part of such a passionate and driven community that’s transforming healthcare one step at a time. Looking forward to continuing our work together to create lasting impact! 💪💙 Special shout out to Mike Mosquito, CHCIO, MBA, PMP, CDH-E, Patty Lavely, Sepideh (Sepi) Browning FHIMSS, FACHE, CHCIO, eFACHDM, MHA/MPH, PMP, CHISL, Christopher Kunney, FHIMSS, eFACHDM, MSMOT and all the rest of the GA HIMSS community that put it together… amazing work.
