“HIMSS has been working for decades to get the healthcare industry out of the 1970s and into the 21st century,” Sprint CEO Dan Hesse pointed out during his keynote at the HIMSS event in Atlanta this week. “That’s why I’m here,” Hesse said, “to help facilitate that change.”
We have a historic opportunity in healthcare right now to use wireless technologies to boost efficiencies, reduce costs all while improving the quality of care, Hesse continued. The wireless industry needs to hear from the healthcare industry: What are the needs? What works best in the field? What tools work best for patients at home? We want to help provide you with those tools, Hesse said.”
