How to Do More with Less - the Connected Health Platform Explained*
Dr. Ilia Fortunov – Architect and Technology Strategist, Microsoft Worldwide Health
Healthcare IT departments face unprecedented demands, including the need to connect multiple disparate systems to enhance care and improve communications, enable workforce mobility, and help develop new care delivery models. Successful healthcare organizations meet these demands by turning their core IT infrastructure from a cost center to a strategic asset while reducing total cost of ownership and improving service levels and organizational agility. Learn how the architectural guidance, tools and solution accelerators offered by the Microsoft Connected Health Platform can help partners and health organizations develop open and extensible e-Health solutions which take advantage of pervasive technologies and serve the broadest range of needs.
