“There are zero technical barrier to interoperability — barriers are *entirely* health care business model based,” Mr. Malec wrote.

Mr. Malec also said healthcare business stakeholders “don’t care enough.” His tweet said this is why healthcare suffers from insufficient interoperability and why “the patient experience in health ‘care’ is poor.”

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
