Update: HIMSS TV adds Mount Sinai's Ashish Atreja and Surescripts CEO Tom Skelton

HIMSS TV on Thursday revealed that Tom Skelton and Dr. Ashish Atreja have joined the slate of interviewees at the Global Conference next week.

Atreja is the Chief Innovation Officer at Mount Sinai and founding chair of NODE.Health. Skelton is CEO of Surescripts.

Word about Skelton and Atreja comes on the heels of HIMSSTV saying that Lygeia Ricciardi and Kisha Hortman Hawthorne have joined its lineup of health IT experts to be interviewed. Hawthorne is CIO at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and Ricciardi is chief transformation officer at Carium Technology Solutions, as well as a HIMSS19 Social Media Ambassador and one of the inaugural Champions of Health.         

Previously, HIMSSTV said that Dr. Richard Milani and Dr. Chris DeRienzo joined its speakers. Milani is Chief Clinical Transformation Officer at Ochsner and DiRienzo is the Chief Quality Officer at Mission Health System.

Earlier this week, HIMSS TV announced that Ben Moscovitch and Beth Landon have joined the lineup. Moscovitch is project director of health information technology at Pew Charitable Trusts and Landon is the Director of Policy at New Mexico Hospital Association.

Late last week, HIMSS TV said Dr. Stanley Shaw and Dr. John Halamka will be interviewed on site. Shaw is associate dean of executive education at Harvard Medical School and Halamka is CIO at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Professor of International Healthcare at Harvard Medical School. Among other topics, the two will discuss the upcoming Data, Insights, & Strategies for the Health Enterprise event at Harvard in June.

HIMSS TV previously noted that Aashima Gupta and John Kansky will appear on the video channel.

Gupta is global head of healthcare solutions at Google Cloud and a HIMSS19 Champion of Health. Kansky, CEO of the self-sufficient Indiana Health Information Exchange, is a HIMSS Global Conference veteran and noted HIE expert.

HIMSS TV also booked Aashima Gupta and John Kansky to appear on the video channel. Gupta is global head of healthcare solutions at Google Cloud and, like Ricciardi, a HIMSS19 Champion of Health. Kansky, CEO of the self-sufficient Indiana Health Information Exchange, is a HIMSS Global Conference speaker veteran and a noted HIE expert. 

Gupta and Kansky joined former four-term Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas, who is a long-time health IT proponent and the co-Chair of HIMSS State Advisory Roundtable will appear on HIMSSTV, as will Cynthia Green-Edwards, who is Chief Compliance Officer for Michigan’s Department of Health and Human Services and the 2018 HIMSS State Official of the Year.
