Re-Imagining Health at HIMSS: Bamboo Health Fosters Interoperable Care Coordination to Improve Physical and Behavioral Healthcare

Re-Imagining Health at HIMSS: Bamboo Health Fosters Interoperable Care Coordination to Improve Physical and Behavioral Healthcare

The theme of the 2022 HIMSS Global Health Conference & Exhibition centers around re-imagining health – a focus that resonates exceptionally well with us at Bamboo Health. In pursuit of our vision to revolutionize healthcare in the U.S. by connecting every payer, provider, and care team member to address whole person care, we foster care collaboration for the entire healthcare ecosystem to change healthcare for the better. While these words sound aspirational for some, for Bamboo Health they truly capture what we are working toward amid this incredibly unprecedented era in healthcare.

An important part of delivering on this promise is connecting everyone, everywhere through differentiated network reach and interoperability. During HIMSS, Bamboo Health’s Vice President, Strategy and Corporate Development Jitin Asnaani will present a session on “Harnessing the Power of Interoperability to Cultivate Whole Person Care Collaboration across Providers, Patients, and Payers” as part of the HIMSS Interoperability Showcase, which will highlight the real-life impact of enhanced interoperability among providers.

As an advocate for electronic exchange of healthcare information for government, non-profit, health IT, and interoperability systems, Asnaani has been a bridge creator and a collaborator to drive healthcare towards a more coordinated and interoperable future. To date, this work has collectively enabled more than 100,000 clinical facilities – including almost 100% of all hospitals, more than 90% of all ambulatory clinics, and thousands of post-acute and home health facilities nationwide – to share their patient’s data with providers and other caregivers electronically, enabling true transformation of care management and helping to spur the advent of the rapidly-growing digital health industry.

At the Bamboo Health booth, we will also highlight the progress we’re making against the behavioral health and substance use crisis through our Pings, OpenBeds, and NarxCare solutions. This includes our latest company initiatives such as our expanded partnership with Bicycle Health, the leading virtual care provider of evidence-based treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD). By leveraging our Pings and Spotlights solutions for real-time insights into emergency department (ED) and acute inpatient care utilization, Bicycle Health case managers and therapists can better track patients’ care journeys, reach out to re-engage patients that have had care events, increase their level of care or alter their care plan as needed, and analyze utilization measures.

In closing, we look forward to participating and sharing our insights with professionals throughout the global health ecosystem who share the common goal of reimagining health and wellness for everyone, everywhere at HIMSS. To learn more about Bamboo Health, our work to support real-time care collaboration, and the progress we’re making to improve whole person care, meet with our team at booth: #4115 or at the Interoperability Showcase: #8240-75, March 14 – 18, 2022 in Orlando, FL.
