Episode Description

Imagine a healthcare system where patient data from thousands of providers seamlessly comes together to improve care in real time.

In this episode, Inderpal Kohli, Chief Technology Officer at Healthix, discusses the transformation of a large New York Health Information Exchange (HIE) into a data intelligence organization, managing data from 9,000 entities and 27,000 physicians. He highlights the challenge posed by messy, disparate data and the importance of normalizing and building trust to provide actionable insights for participants. Kohli shares how federal initiatives like TFCA could expand interoperability, while emphasizing that building value-added services and maintaining participant trust remain top priorities. He advises new healthcare tech professionals to deeply understand healthcare workflows and prioritize adoption alongside technical solutions.

Tune in to hear how one HIE CTO is turning messy, multi-source data into actionable insights that could transform patient care and public health!
