Cloud computing can help healthcare organizations collaborate to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs - but how do they transition to cloud? What are the implications for their operating models, interoperability and information security?

Capgemini and Sogeti will be addressing these questions and more within the knowledge center on cloud computing at HIMSS 12. We will be offering our perspective on implementing and realizing benefits from cloud-enabled collaborative exchange models and back office improvements.

The Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) annual conference and exhibition is widely acknowledged as the leading global forum for products and solutions which transform healthcare provision through technology. Capgemini is a diamond member of HIMSS and will be participating in HIMSS 12 on February 20th - 24th in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.

Capgemini’s global healthcare lead Gerry Yantis, Sogeti’s healthcare lead Andrew Tessier and members of our international team will be present to discuss our latest solutions and portfolio of work in areas including healthcare information exchange, hospital transformation, operational scheduling and resource optimization, and state programs such as Medicare and Medicaid.

Visit us in booth #13642-12 and drop in for our presentation on Cloud-enabled transformation: new approaches in healthcare on Tuesday, February 21, 2012 at 4:15 PM.
