Workflow Solutions For Use Inside Care Facilities
Rarely does an implementation of a novel technology occur in care delivery without disruption to existing workflows. Achieving successful deployment in complex clinical settings requires nuanced attention to a variety of organizational stakeholder needs. This session features examples of changes in clinical and administrative workflow and their implications on organizational diffusion and resource allocation. As mHealth deployments in enterprise settings become ubiquitous a constant eye on workflow impact – and setting appropriate expectations – will be required.

Leveraging mHealth at the Point of Care
Changing clinical workflow and altering the availability of data will be the two dramatic changes caused by bringing mHealth to the point of care. While point-of-care diagnostics and support tools will clearly improve the accessibility of clinical information, care providers will need to focus on training and communication, especially as tools become more widely available in the field. This session will showcase how various mHealth technologies have altered care provision at the point of care.

Wireless Patient Monitoring in Care Facilities: The Future of Wearable mHealth Applications, Devices, and Sensors
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) in care facilities help to reduce costs and increase business opportunities for healthcare service providers while integrating systems and increasing operational efficiency. From a clinical perspective, RPM is helping to minimize hospital stays, also resulting in a reduction of the cost of healthcare delivery. This session showcases examples of mHealth deployment as key components of health system infrastructure.

What Will it Take to Drive Mass Adoption and Patient Engagement
If you build it will they come? While consumer engagement for non-health mobile applications and services has been robust in sectors such as entertainment and gaming, the translation to healthcare has been a tentative one. Mass adoption from a patient perspective ranges from short-term transactional events such as text-messaging to long-term engagements that lead to sustained behavior modification. This session showcases a range of case studies around mHealth patient engagement addressing the mechanics to communicate, instruct, inspire, and change behavior.
