OMG™, Health Level Seven(R) (HL7), and the SOA Consortium™ announce
the "SOA in Healthcare: Value in a Time of Change," conference held
June 2-4, 2009 at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Chicago, IL.
Registration details may be found online at http://www.omg.org/hc-std (04)
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) adoption is viewed as a key
enabler for the 21st century enterprise due to increased opportunity
for productivity and integration, and requires significant changes for
both business and IT executives. The goal of the conference, now in
its second year, is to raise the dialogue about SOA and its use in
healthcare, with a focus on its role as a transformation agent to add
organizational value. (05)
The focus of the SOA in Healthcare conference is to convey real-world
experiences, assembling a community of peers to exchange ideas and
discuss what has worked, what did not work, and review best practices
for attendees to benefit from lessons learned faced in real
implementations. Not a "tech industry" event, this conference is
exclusively healthcare focused, and will highlight the challenges
unique to healthcare organizations and emphasize cross-industry
solutions that are viable within the healthcare domain. It is targeted
primarily to a health-IT savvy audience. (06)
A wide cross-section of the health industry will participate,
including healthcare providers, payers, public health organizations
and vendors from both the public and private sector. In addition, a
select number of international invitees will be presenting. (07)
The conference will be experientially focused, with speakers bringing
their personal and organizational experiences to what will be a
presentation and discussion-oriented forum. The event will host three
tracks: (08)
An "Executive Summit" targeting key decision-makers, CxO's, and technical leads
A "Business Track" focused on the business rationale behind SOA, and
organizational change to support it
A "Technical Track" addressing how to succeed with SOA in a health setting (09)
Everyone with an interest in SOA in healthcare is invited to attend! (010)
