We’re excited to share the topic and questions for this week’s #HITsm chat happening Friday, 1/15 at Noon ET (9 AM PT). This week’s chat will be hosted by Kristen Jacobsen from @RevSpringInc on the topic “Transformation in Healthcare Revenue Cycle as a Result of COVID“.
The burden on healthcare organizations and their patients today, particularly during COVID, is unprecedented – in terms of access to care, personal financial obstacles, and the challenge of revenue collection. This exposes gaps and opportunities in patient engagement. In this chat, we want to explore ways that the industry has transformed since COVID and can accelerate long-time objectives for the good.
Join us for this week’s #HITsm chat where we’ll discuss the following topics.
Topics for this week’s #HITsm Chat:
T1: Prior to and now with the pandemic, do you believe healthcare communications has been behind other industries? #HITsm
T2: Particularly during COVID, what do patients want from their healthcare financial experience that the industry isn’t yet delivering? #HITsm

T4: Do you think COVID and other macro factors will accelerate changes in patient engagement? #HITsm
T5: Is price transparency a good thing, and has COVID enhanced the need for it? #HITsm
Bonus: AI has found its place in clinical settings. Will COVID slow or accelerate the need for AI in marketing and financial engagement? #HITsm
