Encounter-based Care and the VNA Connection

Interactive panel discussion of encounter-based care and how it is shaping Enterprise Imaging requirements across the care continuum. We’ll compare ideas on how and where a Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA) can help improve outcomes through more informed decisions at the patient’s point of care. Learn: 

•  How a VNA can help clinicians access comprehensive patient imaging history via an image-enabled EHR, and across multiple care settings

•  How to design care area workflows and infrastructure to speed adoption

•  How you can best apply and deploy these capabilities across a healthcare system
