Business Wire
Perficient, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRFT) (“Perficient”), the leading
digital transformation consulting firm serving Global 2000® and
other large enterprise customers throughout North America, today
announced it will present on proactive social media governance and
cognitive computing using IBM Watson during the 2017 HIMSS
Conference and Exhibition, Feb. 19-23, at the Orange County
Convention Center in Orlando Fla.
Perficient’s first presentation, “Four Pillars of Social Media
Governance,” at 1:30 p.m. Eastern
time, Feb. 20, in Room 230A, will highlight proper social media
governance infrastructure fueled by data insights derived from
social media listening at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los
Angeles. The multi-specialty academic health science center created
a safe environment that fosters interaction and population health
education in ways that create positive impacts within the
potentially risky environment of healthcare social media.
Melody Smith Jones, manager of Connected Health at Perficient,
and Nelly Jacobo, director of digital strategy at Cedars-Sinai,
will lead the session. Perficient and its Perficient Digital agency
enhanced the medical center’s overall digital patience experience
and are optimizing its patient portal, web, social media, and
mobile experiences.
Perficient’s second presentation will be a Lunch and Learn
session on “Lessons Learned in Applying Cognitive Outcomes,” at 1
p.m. Eastern time, Feb. 21, in Room 202B. Christine Livingston,
director of Perficient’s IBM Watson practice, and Liberty Holt,
manager of predictive analytics at TriHealth, will discuss how the
Cincinnati-based health system leveraged cognitive computing and
Perficient’s Watson expertise to reduce hospital readmission
rates.
Recently, Perficient received a 2017 IBM Beacon Award for the
Watson solution that TriHealth implemented.
