HIMSS survey paints dismal picture

The healthcare industry is "not even close" to standardizing healthcare business transactions and realizing the promise of a return on its investment in IT, even though the government deadline to do so passed nine months ago, according to results of a survey conducted by Phoenix Health Systems and the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society. The deadline for meeting Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Transactions and Codes Sets passed last October, yet the industry has made little progress toward standardizing healthcare business transactions.
Phoenix Health Systems found that many providers and payers may be ready to produce compliant transactions, but their trading partners cannot accept or transmit them. Survey results are based on responses from 540 healthcare industry representatives polled June 1 to 15. A return on investment and HIPAA compliance will be realized only when the industry as a whole decides to work together to conform to the guidelines, according to HIMSS.
MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer
July 26th 2024A model that combines MRI-based deep learning radiomics and clinical factors demonstrated an 84.8 percent ROC AUC and a 92.6 percent precision-recall AUC for predicting perineural invasion in prostate cancer cases.
Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
Can Polyenergetic Reconstruction Help Resolve Streak Artifacts in Photon Counting CT?
July 22nd 2024New research looking at photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) demonstrated significantly reduced variation and tracheal air density attenuation with polyenergetic reconstruction in contrast to monoenergetic reconstruction on chest CT.
