Enabling Data-Driven Care Through Improved Governance, Interoperability, and Analytics

As healthcare organizations strive to provide modern, evidence-based care, the role of HIT systems becomes increasingly critical. However, the effective implementation and utilization of HIT systems are often hindered by challenges in interoperability, usability, data sharing, governance, and analytics. This session aims to address this issue by exploring strategies and best practices in community health centers’ HIT systems for improved patient care outcomes and analytics. Participants will delve into the key issues of HIT systems, including data collection, storage, sharing, analysis, and clinical decision support. Through case studies and real-world health center examples, attendees will gain insights into the potential pitfalls and common errors that can hinder optimization. This workshop will also highlight innovative approaches, such as interoperability, data governance, and user-centered design, that can significantly enhance precision in practice. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in collaborative discussions and problem-solving in HIT related to EHR optimization, change management, data governance, and others.
