Rethinking Healthcare for the Second Era of the Digital Age

The first generation of the digital revolution brought us the mainframes, minicomputers, PC’s, and the Internet of information. The second generation—powered by blockchain technology—is bringing us the Internet of value: a new, distributed platform that can help us reshape the world of business, government and society and transform the old order of human affairs for the better.

He argues that the second era of the Internet has profound implications for healthcare.  The current model is based on clinicians delivering services to passive recipients.  We can move to a new collaborative model where citizens and clinicians co-create wellness.  It can also dramatically change research, science and the management of health care facilities.

Don Tapscott Don Tapscott is one of the world’s leading authorities on innovation, media, and the economic and social impact of technology and advises business and government leaders around the world. In 2013 and 2015, Thinkers50, the definitive list of the Top 50 business thinkers in the world, listed Don as the 2nd most influential management thinker alive. Don’s latest book, co-authored by Alex Tapscott, is Blockchain Revolution: How the Technology behind Bitcoin Is Changing Money, Business, and the World – with a new edition paperback published in 2018.

Identity & Access Management (IAM) and Privilege & Access Management (PAM) Case Study – The Hospital for Sick Children

SickKids is one of the busiest healthcare providers in North America, employing 10K+ staff, admitting 300K+ outpatients, and caring for 12K+ operating room cases a year.  With the large transformation program implementing EPIC, their legacy system that leverage manual user provisioning processes were no longer sustainable.  SickKids engaged KeyData to implement new processes and new IAM and PAM solutions that help SickKids reduce manual processes of on/off boarding.  The implementation required complex data management, data clean-up, consolidation of identity data from various repositories, and integration with several core systems, including EPIC and a Learning Management System. This session will describe the various challenges, lessons learned, and SickKids recommended recipe for success!

Why you would not deploy AI (anytime soon)

With tremendous excitement about deploying AI in medical setting, the number of successes is low. I will argue for that some of the biggest challenges to deploying AI are systemic, and require evaluation of impact of these technologies on patient workflows and outcomes.

Instead we are working to integrate machine learning tools into existing clinical workflows. I will discuss the technical, human/computer interaction, cultural, and systemic issues that we have needed to overcome to do this effectively.

Water and Oil: The Challenges and Opportunities of Applying Machine Learning in a Clinical Context

Machine learning has shown remarkable capabilities in tasks related to machine vision, natural language processing, and general prediction problems. However in the healthcare setting, building tools that will translate into the clinical setting in a way that improves patient outcomes and helps the healthcare workflow has been limited by confounding factors, domain shifts, and regulatory challenges. We believe that the deployment of machine learning in the hospital setting will require technical expertise to play a collaborative rather than a leading role in the development pipeline.

    Exploring Cyber Security Strategies in Healthcare

    The healthcare industry continues to struggle with how to address medical device security in their environments. Acknowledging that these devices potentially leverage cloud-based processing and storage, as well as potentially have local storage; this data, and the connected medical devices that create it, are changing how healthcare organizations are run and how clinicians assess, diagnose, treat, and interact with their patients. However, any networked device that can receive, collect, store or transmit data also has the potential to be compromised.

    • What are some methods that you can identify / quantify the magnitude of devices in your environment?
    • How do healthcare organizations balance the value and risk of Medical IoT?
    • How can healthcare organizations effectively manage and protect all these devices?

    Securely managing Medical IoT requires automated visibility and unified policies for sensors and devices and the data they generate; advanced detection enhanced with real-time threat intelligence; and centralized control that can automatically coordinate response. In this think tank, we’ll explore how and why cybercriminals target IoMT devices, and how these threats can be mitigated.

    Ontario Hospital / Health System/ Medical Clinic Privacy Leaders Panel Discussion

    Session theme:   Working through privacy challenges in an increasingly complex health IT landscape in Ontario

    This session will discuss the following questions / areas:

    There appears to be a shift to many specialized technologies that must be connected to achieve our organizations’ and the health systems’ aim. Could you talk about your perspective on the impact of that on the role of privacy functions and how we can work with IT and emerging vendors to achieve our goals while protecting privacy? (follow up on Cloud, 3rd parties managing data, accountabilities, US vendors in CAN market)

    - One of the biggest upcoming changes in Ontario is going to be the creation of Ontario Health Teams, which will provide coordinated care for patients. What does the new structure of care delivery in Ontario mean for privacy and how can we best work with IT? (follow up on breaches, notification, patient-centricity and access, clarity on who ‘owns’ the risk)

    - (time permitting) Due to the rapidity of IT and business change, privacy officers often find themselves perceived as a bottleneck as all roads lead through privacy. How do you manage that challenge to be a respected partner while ensuring appropriate protections and risk mitigations are in place in IT solutions? (follow up on resources, articulating risks, privacy literacy in IT and with partners)

    -  (time permitting) With the emergence of genetics, personalized medicine, and learning health systems, what do you see as the future challenges of privacy and IT and what could we be doing now to prepare ourselves for the future? (follow up on de-id vs anonymization, detection of breaches, willful re-identification)
