CHIME Theater Session: From Interoperability to Intelligence

On February 24 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. PT, Verato CEO Clay Ritchey will join Kim Jones, director of data management at Novant Health, for a CHIME Theater session titled "From Interoperability to Intelligence: Creating a Trusted Healthcare Customer 360."

The discussion will highlight how Novant Health uses Verato identity intelligence to unify fragmented identity data across clinical, consumer, and operational systems—creating a comprehensive, trusted 360-degree view of patients and consumers. Healthcare leaders are encouraged to attend this session to learn practical strategies for strengthening identity foundations, improving digital engagement, and driving better outcomes across the enterprise.

"Identity isn't a background infrastructure. It's the foundation for everything. Healthcare identity intelligence enables this by creating a single, trusted source of truth for identity across the organization, bridging the gap between systems of record, experience, and insight. With a single trusted source, hospitals gain a complete and reliable view of consumers, patients, providers, and partners," said Ritchey.

The session will demonstrate how Opala and Verato apply identity intelligence early in the data exchange process to identify mismatches and prevent inaccurate or incomplete data from spreading across systems. Attendees will walk away with actionable insights on how to stop identity issues before they impact interoperability, analytics, and patient experience.
