A single source of reference, collaboration & truth for evidence-based healthcare technology news, data, and education.
HDMgroup creates clarity through evidence-based, solution-focused content.
HDMgroup is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit company
HDMgroup was established in partnership with Health Sciences South Carolina to bring clarity and ease of access to disparate sources of knowledge and education in healthcare through the trusted foundation of Health Data Management.
Our community of healthcare professionals is connected through a common desire to educate, learn, mentor and share resources for understanding, creating, adopting and optimizing healthcare technologies as the industry increasingly transforms around the Quadruple Aim as it now stands, and in the near future, as we foresee the components of the Quadruple Aim evolving and being re-imagined.
To be a single source of reference for unbiased, trusted and evidence-based knowledge for improving patient health and delivery of care through the application of advanced computing and related digital health technologies.
To provide clarity of information for healthcare professionals, working teams and organizations making decisions across the healthcare ecosystem in efforts to achieve the Quadruple Aim, pursue healthcare equity and optimize related digital health strategies.
To inform, educate and enable improved patient care and operational excellence through technology adoption, management and optimization; and to promote collaborative leadership and open access to content among healthcare providers, payers, academics and innovators.
Reimagining the Quadruple Aim
Healthcare delivery and reimbursement is evolving rapidly, out of necessity. Industry players are taking on new responsibilities in a changing and reforming healthcare environment, particularly as the industry transitions to new priorities embodied by the Quadruple Aim of a nationwide, efficient and effective care delivery system.
In this continuous evolution, technology matures and delivers on the full promise to support healthcare delivery improvement. A reimagined Quadruple Aim driving healthcare for years to come
Reimagining the Quadruple Aim
Population Health
Moving beyond treating illness, healthcare delivery continues expanding as organizations better manage chronic health conditions and optimize patients’ health and wellness.
Patient and Clinician Experiences
Currently viewed as separate initiatives, we see efforts to improve these experiences converging as a symbiotic initiative as clinicians and patients partner for better outcomes.
Lower Cost
Decades of growth in healthcare expenditures must be addressed by increasing efficiency among providers and payers, resulting in wiser care decisions based on aggregated evidence.
Health Equity
Recent experiences with pandemic and population health issues underscore the importance of optimizing health resources to treat all patients equitably and consistently.
The Need: An unmet need for trusted, easy-access information focused on innovation in practice
With no single source gathering and disseminating crucial information from lessons learned, healthcare leadership teams have been forced to rely on siloed sources of information from disparate publications, research firms, associations, influencers and self-selected email lists.
“Today, there is not one source of information I can go to. I have to use a cocktail of information outlets, coupled with a listserv that I have subscribed to that was started by a desperate ER doc who was trying to solve some problems on his own. I know others out there have solved problems I am encountering; it’s just so hard to find the information and people who can help.”
The Solution: A new purpose for a respected 25-year-old brand – Health Data Management. An even brighter beacon guiding healthcare forward.
HDMgroup has a new mission for Health Data Management, a respected brand that has been a beacon for the industry for nearly three decades. For years, Health Data Management has been a trusted source for the latest news and trends in the health IT industry. Under new stewardship, it’s rebirth establishes The Single Source for clear, evidence-based information for chief clinical informaticists and their teams now leading the digital transformation of healthcare.
