  • CONFERENCE PROGRAM November 15–17, 2016, Boston, MA
    CONFERENCE PROGRAM November 15–17, 2016, Boston, MA CONFERENCE PROGRAM | MESSAGE President and Chair’s Message Dear Colleague: “What we need is a national conversation of experts,” Mark Levin, Partner, Third Rock Ventures, once told the audience at the Annual Personalized Medicine Conference. “Across the industry, across government, the best people in this country to come together to tell us how to maximize value for patients. That is the big challenge in our future.” The 12th Annual Personalized Medicine Conference responds to Levin’s call to action with a concentrated focus on generating solutions to the field’s challenges. It will showcase what is new, offer insights into the issues, and provide partnership and networking opportunities for attendees. But most importantly, it will examine the unique contributions that researchers, investors, industry representatives, policy experts, payers, health care providers and patients can make at each stage in the development of personalized medicine products and services to forge a path through the field’s barriers. The conference program, which is organized around those stages, will go beyond defining personalized medicine’s challenges by, for example: ¢ Exploring the latest trends in research and development ¢ Analyzing the issues facing the diagnostic industry ¢ Finding commonalities in multiple definitions of “value” in health care ¢ Providing examples of the kinds of evidence appropriate for coverage and payment ¢ Examining the best practices for integrating personalized medicine into clinical settings ¢ Debating the circumstances that warrant the sharing of data for research We are pleased to present the entire conference program here, which covers these and many other topics. Sincerely yours, Edward Abrahams, Ph.D.

Those expectations have helped lift a handful of companies in IBD's Computer Software­Medical group, a group at the intersection of health care and Internet technology ­­ and key suppliers to the health industry's conversion from paper to digital electronic records.Cerner ( CERN ),Athenahealth ( ATHN ) andVeeva Systems ( VEEV ) are at the head of that list. All three have seen benefits from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, also known as the stimulus bill. All have also seen their share of recent ups and downs. The initial bill set aside $19 billion to help health care providers convert their patient records systems from paper to digital, or electronic health records. As of Dec. 1, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Pinterest reported the program had paid more than $25.7 billion to participants, including hospitals, doctors and insurance companies, meeting "meaningful use" requirements. Tumblr Email Print Beginning this year, the government will ratchet up the pressure by trimming reimbursements to medical Gmail providers not yet converted to EHR systems, or converts that are falling short of the meaningful­use Favorites benchmarks set out by the stimulus bill.

As a result, EMR/PM satisfaction among small practices (10 or fewer physicians) has varied greatly over the past year—scores for a number of vendors have swung more than 10 percentage points (some positively, some negatively). To explore what the future holds for this market, KLAS spoke to hundreds of small practice customers about their EMR/PM experiences and needs and also interviewed executives and representatives from AdvancedMD, Allscripts, Aprima, athenahealth, Azalea Health, CareCloud, Cerner, CureMD, eMDs, Greenway Health, Kareo, NextGen, Quest Diagnostics, and Virence Health (GE Healthcare) to find out how these vendors plan to increase customer satisfaction going forward. What Are the Most Important Vendor/ NextGen Healthcare, CureMD, and Aprima Product Attributes for Small Practices?
