The intersection of healthcare and technology is setting the stage for unimaginable innovation. From improving patient outcomes and lessening access disparity to helping healthcare organizations become more efficient and secure, technologies like 5G, Artificial Intelligence, Augmented and Virtual Reality promise tremendous benefits. But the future won’t happen overnight, and if the benefits are to be realized, healthcare innovation will require a whole new level of collaboration between physicians, administrators, technologists and patients themselves. Drawing on primary research and frequent interactions with leading healthcare organizations, David Grady, Chief Cyber Security Evangelist at Verizon, will share insights into today’s healthcare/IT innovation landscape. Topics will include how 5G is already changing healthcare, an introduction to cybercrime trends in healthcare, and a review of several use cases that illustrate how quickly the IT-driven future of healthcare is coming.
