With the HIMSS Annual Conference wrapping up in Las Vegas there are a lot of sore feet and throats (from walking through clouds of smoke). The Perficient team was excited to be invited to demonstrate our ONC certified Meaningful Use Stage 2 and ACO reporting solution, Health BI, in the Microsoft booth. There was great interest in Health BI throughout the conference, it seemed to resonate with people that because the solution is built leveraging Microsoft’s SQL Server & SharePoint products, it offers a lower TCO solution to Healthcare Providers trying to deliver Healthcare Analytics and reporting.
InformationWeek’s Paul Cerrato stopped by to see our Health BI demo and also mentioned us in his Healthcare IT goes StarTrek article for InformationWeek. Here’s what Paul had to say
” The HIMSS conference featured several other powerful clinical analytics programs. Perficient,for instance, which has built its HealthBI suite on Microsoft’s backbone, can handle the performance benchmarks needed to meet both Meaningful Use and Accountable Care Organization (ACO) rules.
HealthBI can generate disease registries for clinical reporting to public health agencies, do business reporting and financial management dashboards for reporting and improving key performance measures, and provide integration with leading financial & clinical applications. In fact, it contains the software tools to help providers meet all 33 quality measures required by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service’s final rules to qualify as an ACO.”
The conversations that I participated in on the exhibit floor at the HIMSS12 conference were very focused around Healthcare analytics and the drive towards Accountable Care Organizations. What were the topics that resonated with you at HIMSS12?
