A Prescription-Strength Formula for Stronger Cybersecurity in Healthcare Organizations
The following is a guest article by Steven Stone, Head of Rubrik Zero Labs at Rubrik
In early August, a ransomware attack disrupted operations across its network of 17 hospitals and more than 165 clinics in four states and forced some to rely on paper records. Some emergency rooms were shut down and ambulances diverted after the company took its computer systems offline to protect and restore them.
Again. Here we go again. This is what most of us thought when we read this story. Cyberattacks on healthcare institutions are not only particularly galling, they’re growing. Healthcare organizations were hit with 1,426 attacks...

Healthcare Organizations at Risk: BYOD and Mobile Devices are Increasing Cybersecurity Concerns
The following is a guest article by Kern Smith, Mobile Security Expert at Zimperium
The healthcare industry has been transforming radically over the past decade with the common goal of improving the way healthcare is delivered to patients. In the last few years alone, we’ve watched as healthcare organizations have quickly become mobile-powered businesses with the migration to electronic health records, patients increasingly using mobile apps to view test results, schedule appointments, contact their care provider, and even control their medical devices. Although this shift has brought many advantages such as more accurat...

In conclusion, although the contribution of CRF to GrimAgeAccel and FitAgeAccel is relatively low compared to lifestyle-related factors such as smoking, the results suggest that the maintenance of CRF is associated with delayed biological ageing in older men.

Declining Cardiovascular Mortality in Atrial Fibrillation Patients
A downward trend in cardiovascular mortality has prevailed for some time now, and we might take the data here as an example of ways in which improved options for detection and treatment produce results in specific portions of the patient population. Also worthy of note is the point that these older patients have many issues, and while slowing the pace of cardiovascular decline with age should have beneficial effects throughout the body, reduced cardiovascular mortality due to improved treatment that specifically focuses on cardiovascular disease allows other age-related conditions to claim a greater proportion of the popul...

Upcoming Healthcare Regulations and Their Impact on Healthcare IT
For something as important and as sensitive as healthcare, there are plenty of rules and regulations in place to protect both patients and organizations. However, with healthcare being ever-evolving our regulations are also ever evolving.

Microsoft CEO Sees Generative AI as Transformative as Relational Databases
At Epic’s 2023 User Group Meeting (#epicugm), Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and Sumit Rana, Senior Vice President at Epic sat down for a one-on-one conversation about generative AI. Their conversation was fascinating on two levels. First, it was surprising that they did not speak to the deeper partnership between the two companies that was announced in the hours ahead of their time on stage. Second, was the blink-and-you-missed-it difference between how the two men view generative AI.

Moving the Industry Forward with First-Of-Its-Kind RCM Technology Adoption Model for Healthcare Finance Leaders
An adoption model methodology is nothing new in the healthcare industry. HIMSS, for example, built their Healthcare Maturity Models to provide clear adoption and implementation pathways for various technologies and capabilities that health systems need. What the market had been lacking, however, is a tried-and-true framework that could address the revenue cycle management needs of healthcare finance leaders.
Adoption models, which are very popular in computing and organizational change, define stages for the adoption of a process or technology and helps organizations determine which stage they’re at: piloting, early adop...

Population Health Management: SDOH Challenges and Solutions
Conclusion
SDOH data collection has its challenges. The first step is to convince organizations and policymakers of its utility and promise to offer whole-person care. Without SDOH, providers are only taking in a fraction of their patient’s health. Therefore, the dismissal of SDOH only widens health disparity gaps and fuels a cycle of reduced patient engagement.
However, the use of focused SDOH benchmarking, routine screening assessments, and robust analytics tools can help organizations take steps toward greater health equity. This gives each patient the potential to achieve and maintain optimal physical hea...

These Three Things Can Bring EHRs to the Next Level
The following is a guest article by Dr. Mark Pratt, Chief Medical Officer at Altera Digital Health
The patient quietly sits while her physician delves into the data stored in her electronic health record, combing through different screens for specific information. It takes longer than both expect, precious minutes that diminish the available time for an actual conversation about the patient’s health status and the physician’s recommendations.
This familiar scene exemplifies the unnecessary burdens traditional EHRs have placed on providers, patients, and the overall healthcare system. As a former ER physician and curren...

Why Are So Many Healthcare Companies Still Being Breached?
The following is a guest article by Terry Ray, SVP, Data Security GTM, and Field CTO at Imperva
Despite satisfying regulatory requirements, 93% of healthcare organizations have experienced a data breach within the past three years and 57% have been breached more than five times over that span. The alarming frequency and severity of these breaches leave many wondering why. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is one of the most well-known – though broadly misunderstood – data protection regulations, and it includes stiff penalties for noncompliance. With such stringent protections in place, ...
