  • Not More Meds, But the Right Meds at Clarest Health
    Apr 28 2025

    Many people are dealing with a medication mess. They get prescriptions from different specialties (neurology, cardiology, etc.), who are busy and can't always check for contraindications or adverse effects. The patient then picks up drugs at different pharmacies and uses different payment methods, so that neither pharmacies nor payers know the patient fully. No one tracks the patient as they move to a hospital, rehab, etc. This fragmented approach not only leads to confusion but also increases the risk of preventable medication errors, hospital readmissions, and poor health outcomes.In this video, CEO Hammad Shah lays out the three key goals for medication management: achieving compliance (or adherence), eliminating ineffective drugs, and warning about adverse effects. He goes so far as to aim toward being a "patient advocate."Learn more about Clarest Health: https://clarest.com/Health IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

  • Current Trends in Impersonation Attacks and What to Do
    Apr 22 2025

    In this interview, we discuss the current state of cybersecurity in health care with a specific focus on impersonation attacks, featuring Ryan Witt, Vice President, Industry Solutions at Proofpoint and Erik Decker, Vice President & Chief Information Security Officer at Intermountain Health.Witt shares many of the learnings from Proofpoint's healthcare customer advisory board where they learn about industry challenges and discuss solutions. He said that attackers particularly seek entry points through IT help desks, which the attackers contact while impersonating some doctor or other staff member. They can learn a lot about the person they're impersonating on the web or from less legitimate sources and answer a lot of the typical questions IT staff ask to validate a caller.Witt recommends looking through the organization chart to look for people that might be low-level and often forgotten, but who have access to sensitive information or systems and might be targetted or impersonated by attackers.Learn more about Proofpoint: https://www.proofpoint.com/usLearn more about Intermountain Health: https://intermountainhealthcare.org/Health IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/
