Convening industry forces to transform innovation

Anthony Chang, MD, chief intelligence and innovation officer at CHOC, explains to Adam Culberston, HIMSS innovator in residence, how machine learning will "augment the intelligence of the clinician" and ultimately lead to better decision making.

Common pitfalls of healthcare innovation include the lack of follow-ups, the lack of an innovation strategy and an overemphasis on technology, says Justin Gernot, vice president of HIMSS subsidiary Healthbox.

Steve Wretling, chief technology and innovation officer at HIMSS, says that understanding the "why" is key to achieving a spectrum of innovation that is about solving the problem, and not just rolling out a tech-driven approach.
