Health:Further Festival - Making an Impact: Leveraging a Clinical Background to Develop Meaningful Innovation
Tuesday, Aug. 28: 10:28 am – 10:54 am CDT
Clinicians are often forced to create innovative workarounds for clinical care processes through the day and over the course of their careers. But they don’t often understand how to translate the lessons they’ve learned at the bedside into innovative solutions on a larger scale. In this session, join Dr. Lyle Berkowitz as he explores how to build upon years of clinical experience and translate them into solutions at the macro level.

Connected Health Summit - Virtual Visits: Expanding Reach and Functionality
Wednesday, Aug. 29: 4:30pm – 5:30pm PDT
Virtual visits need to expand functionality while also proving ROI and efficacy to enable the shift from an additional to a standard offering. At the same time, all parties, from doctors to patients to insurers, could benefit from a robust remote care solution that goes beyond replacement to improve outcomes over the traditional office-visit model. In this session, hear Chuck Hector discuss partnerships that will improve the virtual care experience for both patients and practitioners as well as the new technologies and services that will strengthen the virtual-visit solution.
