Please join Mary Mosquera, Senior Editor of Government Health IT; Howard Croft, MD FACEP Emergency Physician, Medical Staff President at Columbia St Mary's Hospital, Milwaukee, WI; and Edward Barthell, MD MS, Director, Microsoft Health Solutions Group, for a discussion on the future of connected health and how effective health information exchange can lead to improved quality and cost-effectiveness in care delivery.
