MEDSEEK CEO speaks in a series of eHealth podcasts posted on Healthcare Technology Online

MEDSEEK, the healthcare industry industry's only provider of the eHealth ecoSystem^TM, today announced that CEO Peter Kuhn is the guest speaker in a series of eHealth podcasts posted on Healthcare Technology Online, an Internet resource for healthcare technology news.

“MEDSEEK is committed to providing thought leadership in this category.”

The podcast series features three interviews on different aspects of healthcare technology. The first, entitled "Introducing the ePatient," provides an in-depth description of today's healthcare consumer, their experiences in other industries and how those consumer experiences impact patient expectations for the healthcare industry.

In the second installment, "What the C-Suite Should Know about Meaningful Use," Kuhn discusses how healthcare executives can leverage the HIT investments required to achieve Meaningful Use and the business case for going beyond the minimum requirements of the HITECH Act to fully engage patients.

Kuhn's final podcast, "Clearing Up the HIE Confusion," focuses on the challenges healthcare providers face in differentiating between simply providing data and providing data that is useful and meaningful to patients and physicians. "Health Information Exchange is the foundation of care coordination," said Kuhn. "MEDSEEK is committed to providing thought leadership in this category." To that end, MEDSEEK will be represented in a panel discussion on the topic at next month's Summer Health IT Summit sponsored by the Institute for Health Technology Transformation.

Kuhn was also recently named one of ProfNet's topic experts on health information technology adoption and the creation of health information exchanges under the current administration. According to the online community, the MEDSEEK CEO will provide insight on the impact of constituent-based portal technologies, as well as leveraging disparate technology investments to create electronic health records and improve the cost and quality of care. Kuhn and his organization are focused exclusively on eHealth technologies and creating a better experience for constituents across the healthcare enterprise.

"MEDSEEK has built solutions for these pressing healthcare needs for more than 14 years," said Kuhn. "We are among only four vendors who have operational HIEs today, and we are the only company with operational solutions to help hospitals move beyond simply checking the boxes on the Meaningful Use checklist for both engaging patients and families and coordinating care initiatives."

MEDSEEK continues to research and develop new services and products every day to help its clients engage patients and families, achieve care coordination and remain competitive in an aggressive environment.
