Microsoft Health gave a presentation at IoT Solutions World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, at the end of October. It was exciting to see so many innovative IoT solutions presented there, especially those of our partner HCL, which won a 2016 IoT Solutions Award in the category of \u201cBest Testbed”<\/a>, for its industrial IoT Surgical Track & Trace solution, IoTWoRKS.<\/p>\n

IoTWoRKS is built entirely on the Microsoft cloud platform and can be seen in person at the upcoming HIMSS annual conference and exhibition<\/a> in Orlando, Florida, where HCL will be showcasing it in one of the conference\u2019s 20 innovative booths.<\/p>\n

The IoT-enabled surgical kit inventory management solution essentially can help health organizations track a surgical kit box to know where it is and what\u2019s in it. It\u2019s a great example of how organizations can connect smart medical devices and equipment to the Microsoft Cloud to help improve operational efficiency and reduce inventory costs.<\/p>\n

At HIMSS17, there will be displays of IoT solutions for remote patient monitoring, such as those from Microsoft Health partner Cognizant<\/a>. Health organizations are using its solutions to help them empower patients and transform care. Case in point: Kaiser Permanente is working with Cognizant to pilot a way to give patients\u2014such as expectant mothers, diabetics, and people with Alzheimer\u2019s disease\u2014the choice to participate in remote monitoring in their homes. The pilot also aims to empower clinicians with better insight into health conditions through real-time access to data. To learn more, read the Kaiser Permanente story<\/a> and this blog<\/a> by Mehul Shah, Associate Director of Engineering Solutions at Cognizant Technology Solutions.<\/p>\n

Another exciting Microsoft Health partner that can help with remote patient monitoring that will be in featured in a HIMSS booth this year is MedApp. They offer telemedicine solutions for monitoring heart function of cardiac patients.<\/p>\n

In other words, at HIMSS17, attendees will get to see demos of IoT solutions from a diverse ecosystem of partners that can help organizations start right now on transforming the care continuum\u2014solutions that are built on the trusted Microsoft Cloud<\/a>, which is designed to comply with a wide array of global regulations<\/a>. For example, to support customers\u2019 digital transformation needs, Microsoft [Health] offers a broad range of covered cloud services under one umbrella Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act Business Associate Agreement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In addition to visiting these booths at HIMSS to check out all the great solutions from Microsoft Health partners and hear customer success stories, make sure to attend a \u201clunch and learn\u201d session<\/a> on Tuesday, Feb. 21 at 1:00 p.m for a discussion on how you one can personalize healthcare with remote patient monitoring.<\/p>\n

HIMSS17 is fast approaching and it is sure to be an amazing event! In the meantime, learn more about what Microsoft Health and its partners will be doing there<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
