Due to an availability change with one of our speakers, our webinar has been cancelled. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause and will notify you when a future date is scheduled.
When the COVID-19 pandemic began, many healthcare providers and life sciences organizations deployed Microsoft Teams and actively used it for communication and collaboration. Six months in, organizations are exploring what’s next with Teams.
How can the tool help support care coordination? What within Teams helps data integration to aid in improved decision making? Is Teams helping to maintain company culture, despite many still working remotely?
In this webinar, healthcare operations and enterprise collaboration experts will dive into the top five areas to consider for effective Teams use:
- Security in a regulated industry
- Governance
- Healthcare-specific change
- Support
- Adoption
Our experts will explore the importance of governance, internal competency development and training. We’ll also have healthcare leaders from Vanderbilt University Medical Center and Nuvance Health share helpful information about their own Teams deployments, how they made effective use of the tool, and considerations for how to navigate what’s next.
