2nd Version How to Get an ROI at a Large Trade Show #ATA2012 #HIMSS


I am doing a quick recap of this post from yesterday, as I accidentally deleted it from the blog…  SORRY
PRE-SET MEETINGS!  That’s the name of the game at large trade shows.  I shared yesterday of a client that was a fortune 500 company with a new presence in healthcare. There was a new marketing director in place tasked with building out the healthcare division.  A few years ago she went to the 50 sales reps to see how many had preset meetings.  You would be shocked to know that the average was less than 2 per rep. Some reps were seasoned and some were not. The goal was that all reps had to have at least 10 preset meetings to come back to HiMSS the following year.  Their top rep did not get the 10 meetings and was made an example of the next year.  That rep was not allowed to come to HiMSS.  This year each rep had on average of 35 meetings!  The moral of the story is that HiMSS was a huge success for them this year.  If you are in charge of selling/business development, please go out of your way and set some preset meetings if you have not already done so!   

Happy Selling!

Orion Health- Southern California #HIE with 4.1 Million Residents Multiple Stake Holders Buy in


I like that this HIE got multiple stake holders buy-in.  21 Hospitals and a total of 48 organizations involved.  Too often I hear that it is hard to get buy in from multiple stakeholders.  If you are working on setting up an HIE I would like to hear how you overcome the obstacle of getting multiple stakeholders buy in.

BIG DATA - Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center to create a new startup, QI Healthcare


It’s no secret that Business Intelligence or “BIG DATA” is on everyone’s mind right now.  In a recent Forbes article Deputy CIO Martin Peuker said that more than 700 hospital employees have access to a central data warehouse.  This gives access to all data that is needed to measure results and provide better care. It also saves hours upon hours of work.  This has led to universities and hospitals creating their own start ups that can solve their problems.  Another startup was Health Care DataWorks developed and Ohio State University. Here are links for the articles.  If you are not integrating a solution to solve the challenges of measuring BIG DATA into your portfolio maybe you should now… If you are not integrating a BI solution into your portfolio maybe you should now…
