Peter Waegemann, VP mHealth Initiative, and Claudia Tessier, President, mHealth Initiative will attend the event. Waegemann will present a keynote presentation to an audience of healthcare solution providers and senior executive leaders; Tessier will present her mobile policy findings in a workshop presentation. The CIO Healthcare Summit will be held at the Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, AZ, May 9-12, 2010.
“Both Peter Waegemann and Claudia Tessier are greatly respected members of the healthcare IT community. We’re delighted to welcome back mHealth initiative as a premiere event partner and we are confident that attendees of the CIO Healthcare Summit will gain significant value from the presentations of these seasoned leaders,” said Glenn Willis, CEO, CDM Media and Acting EVP, CIO Healthcare Summit.
mHealth Initiative is a not-for-profit organization that envisions the emerging mHealth revolution. mDevices offer interoperability, provide the basis of mobile communications, allow access to the Internet and the huge scientific body of medicine, serve as documentation systems, and provide decision support guidance for care. Their most important benefit is enabling participatory health, the new paradigm that involves healthy people, patients, wellness and care providers in a healthcare system that is open and transparent, with the patient at its center.
The CIO Healthcare Summit is designed to maximize information sharing and takeaways for all participants, providing attendees with the latest in information technology and innovative ideas. Agenda highlights will include Claudia Tessier workshop presentation on “Mobile Phone Policies and Strategies” and Peter Waegemann’s keynote presentation on “CIO Challenges in 2010” that will look at the Consumer Health Movement and what it means for the CIO.
