2. Interoperability Showcase

The 2008 Interoperability Showcase will highlight the Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) framework. IHE (www.ihe.net, www.ihe-j.org) is a global standards harmonization initiative, now in its tenth year that creates the framework for passing vital health information seamlessly—from application to application, system to system, and setting to setting—across multiple healthcare institutions. IHE brings together healthcare information technology stakeholders to implement standards for communicating patient information efficiently among clinicians and other healthcare providers.

Please join sponsors, various IHE committee of IHE in the educational theatre within the showcase to learn more about how this framework can benefit your implementation of an interoperable patient information exchange that includes various healthcare specialties such as Radiology, Cardiology, Laboratory, Patient Care Devices, and Infrastructure.
