With the Rise of AI, What IP Disputes in Healthcare Are Likely to Emerge?
Munck Wilson Mandala Partner Greg Howison shared his perspective on some of the legal ramifications around AI, IP, connected devices and the data they generate, in response to emailed questions.
Symposium participants will have the opportunity to work with nationally recognized experts to identify and prioritize issues critical to ensuring that patient-centered high-value healthcare delivery practices thrive and spread. Audience-response devices will allow participants to rank ideas and instantly learn others’ opinions.
During the symposium, participants will formulate ideas and recommendations for the new CMS Innovation Center, as well as identify and prioritize key issues for future phases of healthcare reform.
Symposium discussions will take their lead from cornerstones created by hundreds of stakeholders and national thought leaders during the past four years through the Mayo Clinic Health Policy Center. These cornerstones are:
1. Create Value: Improve patient outcomes and satisfaction. Decrease medical errors, costs and waste.
2. Coordinate Care: Coordinate patient care across people, functions, locations and time to increase value. Ensure patients’ active participation in the process and create a patient first approach.
3. Reform the Payment System: Change the way providers are paid in order to improve health and minimize waste.
4. Provide Health Insurance for All Americans: Provide guaranteed, portable health insurance for all citizens, giving them choice, control and peace of mind.
