Perficient,
Inc. (NASDAQ: PRFT), a leading information technology consulting
firm serving Global 2000 and other large enterprise customers throughout
North America, today announced its healthcare technology experts will
present on Oracle technology solutions designed to enhance patient
engagement and lower cost of care at Oracle
OpenWorld 2013. Oracle OpenWorld will be held Sept. 22-26 in San
Francisco, and is the world’s largest information technology event for
Oracle technology providers and customers.
There is a fundamental shift in the healthcare industry from a focus on
fixing sickness to a focus on preventive health and wellness. Providers
are challenged with adapting their culture and their resources to better
engage patients in their care while at the same time lowering overall
costs. Technology plays a strategic role in addressing healthcare
industry shifts and provides the opportunity for innovation and success.
“Technology for technology’s sake does not improve outcomes. There has
to be a willingness by providers and patients to change the current
status quo and become more proactive in the giving and receiving of
care,” said Lesli Adams, Perficient director of Oracle Healthcare
business intelligence. “As an Oracle Platinum Partner, Perficient is
skilled in the entire Oracle Healthcare stack. Our team is uniquely
positioned to help our clients develop and implement technology
solutions, including patient portals and business intelligence and
analytics solutions, to improve quality of care, mitigate costs, ensure
regulatory compliance, and provide lasting business results. In doing
so, providers can better engage patients in their care and will
experience improved operational efficiency. It’s a win-win.”
During OpenWorld, Adams and Dr. Marcie Stoshak-Chavez, Perficient
director of healthcare strategic advisory services, will present
“Patient Portals, Fulfilling the Patient-Centered Medical Home” on
Monday, Sept. 23. In their session, they will discuss the synergy
between the patient portal and disease registries, and the power of
patient-centered medical homes in engaging patients with medical care
when and where they need it most.
In addition, Adams also will co-present with Jim McDowell, Perficient
senior director of Oracle healthcare strategy, during the session,
“Game-Changing Uses of Big Data in Healthcare,” which will take place on
Wednesday, Sept. 25. Adams and McDowell will discuss how Oracle is
developing new relationships with key organizations participating in
clinical trials, and conducting research and development that will
monitor medication adherence and patient compliance, and deliver
continuous real-time information for clinical decision-making to
optimize drug delivery and enhance the speed of drug trial completion.
