Abstract
As organizations rapidly integrate AI technologies across their operations, they face unprecedented challenges in managing both known and emerging risks. Panelists will explore the critical intersection of AI governance, cybersecurity, and data management, providing actionable strategies for establishing robust governance frameworks.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the compliance landscape and potential consequences of inadequate AI governance across industries
- Examine real-world case studies of governance breakdowns and identify best practices for preventing similar issues
- Develop post-deployment strategies for detecting and addressing algorithmic bias, performance drift, and emerging risks in AI systems
Abstract
Abstract
Healthcare interoperability has become a strategic imperative for payers seeking to break down data silos and enable seamless electronic data exchange across the care continuum. This panel will explore how health plans are leveraging HL7 FHIR® standards to achieve true interoperability, moving beyond traditional EDI transactions to real-time, bidirectional data sharing with providers, members, and other stakeholders.
Learning Objectives
- Identify key interoperability barriers in payer operations and evaluate how HL7 FHIR® standards address electronic data exchange challenges
- Review comprehensive strategies for implementing FHIR-based electronic data exchange, including Patient Access APIs, Bulk FHIR for population health, and bidirectional provider data sharing
- Analyze how improved interoperability through FHIR transforms key payer transactions—from streamlined prior authorization and claims processing to enhanced care coordination and quality reporting
Abstract
Abstract
This panel session explores the multifaceted landscape of device vulnerabilities, examining how both internal and external threat actors exploit security weaknesses in modern computing environments. Participants will gain critical insights into the attack vectors that compromise device security, from insider threats and privilege escalation to external malware, network intrusions, and supply chain attacks.
Learning Objectives
- Identify and analyze various threat vectors
- Examine ways to mitigate both internal and external device-related risks
- Create effective incident response procedures for device security breaches.
