Health Fidelity to participate in BluePrint Health IT Innovation Exchange Summit

Health Fidelity, Inc., provider of a breakthrough natural language processing (NLP) platform for healthcare, has been selected to participate with major health systems as one of 10 Innovator Finalists at the West Coast BluePrint Health IT Innovation Exchange Summit.

The BluePrint Health IT Innovation Exchange Summit Series is aligned with the innovation programs and initiatives sponsored by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to achieve better healthcare, meaningful use of health IT, and health information exchange.  It has also been recognized by the White House and HHS as part of their Startup America initiative.

"As more and more healthcare organizations deal with unstructured 'big data' from their IT systems, they will need tools that can accurately transform that data into actionable information," said Dan Riskin, M.D., CEO of Health Fidelity.  "With our proven NLP engine and experience with mining unstructured healthcare data, we provide that application platform.  We're honored to be a part of the Innovation Exchange Summit and look forward to potential partnerships out of the event."

The West Coast BluePrint Health IT Innovation Exchange Summit will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 22, 2012, in Las Vegas, Nev., in the Palazzo Hotel.  Ten Innovator Finalists were selected to be showcased and matched with hospital participants.
