After years of slow to no progress, clinical interoperability is being propelled forward by consumer and competitive market pressures, and an array of federal mandates. On today’s show, host Charles Pelton talks with Genevieve Morris about the evolution of clinical interoperability, where it started, where we are today, and where the industry is headed.

Genevieve Morris is Sr. Director of Clinical Interoperability Strategy at Change Healthcare. She previously worked as a healthcare IT and policy consultant and advisor, and worked on the development of regulations at the U.S. Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology. Charles Pelton is an independent industry analyst and event host.

They review:

• The impact of “information blocking” rules
• Policy or technical challenges: which is the inhibitor?
• Standardizing core healthcare data

• How the federal standards-setting process works
• When real-time healthcare data access is important (and when it isn’t)
• How and when data interoperability makes a clinical difference
• Building trust between healthcare organizations
• A role for AI
