Coronavirus Causes HIMSS to Be Cancelled: What Can Be Learned from Healthcare IT?
The cancellation of the HIMSS conference has had a significant impact on the healthcare IT sector. The super bowl of healthcare technology is the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS). In order to spend five days immersed in cutting-edge healthcare technology and, of course, shop around on the Expo floor, 45,000 delegates from 50 different nations were slated to fly into Orlando. We’re talking about a ton of leads here, but for many businesses, the HIMSS event represents the lifeblood of their sales pipeline for the whole year. Significant revenue challenges to healthcare technology companies exist without HIMSS. No matter what, we must improve our capacity to respond to pandemics. Additionally, as a sector, we must concentrate on creating technological solutions for illness identification, monitoring, and prevention.
