Last week, a group of Perficient colleagues attended a conference for the Healthcare Information and Management System Society (HIMSS). Liza Sisler (@lizasisler, and she also tweets on behalf of @Perficient_HC) connected with several influential social media pioneers in Healthcare IT prior to the conference and was able to gain time with four individuals to shoot short but informative interviews. She asked each of them about the most significant developments and experiences at HIMSS.  Here are all four videos, each one short enough to enjoy. Let us know what you think of each individual’s comments.

Liza Sisler of Perficient, Inc. interviews Tom Mackey, Chair of Microsoft’s Health Users Group and CIO of Aultman Health Foundation. Tom gives his impressions of the HIMSS 2010 conference in Atlanta, GA. He mentions a company called Health Language and also notes that Microsoft’s HealthVault Community Connect announcement, made during HIMSS, has significant impact on the industry.

Last week, we hosted a popular webinar on healthcare analytics. In this broadcast, our healthcare IT practice team discussed why healthcare analytics matters to progressive health systems and took a look at some of the market-leading healthcare analytics products and their associated architectures. We’ve posted the slides on SlideShare and wanted to share them with you here. Please leave us a comment below to tell us what you think, and follow our healthcare IT team on Twitter at @Perficient_HC
