The past year has been full of exciting achievements for MEDITECH, and we were eager to hit the HIMSS25 floor last week and highlight how Expanse’s intelligent platform continues to strengthen with cutting-edge technology, such as the Traverse Exchange network, AI-powered solutions, productivity-boosting tools, and much more. Building momentum for a future that embraces the power of data without leaving clinicians and patients behind, MEDITECH reinforced our position as an industry leader and pioneer.
A vision of the future
MEDITECH’s HIMSS booth served as a hub of innovation on the expo floor, offering an interactive vision of what’s possible in health IT. Kiosks featured bite-sized demo videos of MEDITECH solutions for visitors to peruse at their leisure. Throughout the day, MEDITECH demonstrators showcased Expanse solutions in action to crowds buzzing with a desire to learn more. With a wealth of successes to share, members of MEDITECH’s leadership team were excited to connect with peers and share more about MEDITECH’s groundbreaking work.

MEDITECH takes the stage
As a leader in interoperability, MEDITECH contributed invaluable insights to the Interop + Smart Experience, a dynamic area that provided a platform for attendees to learn and collaborate on how health IT innovations can support a secure, connected healthcare ecosystem.
Commanding their time at the Interop + Smart Experience demonstration booth, the MEDITECH team illustrated the power of Expanse, the intelligent platform, through connected care patient walkthrough demonstrations. The vignettes encompassed a complex patient journey over three major medical events, exemplifying how Expanse simplifies data exchange across multiple specialties for improved patient and clinician satisfaction. As the patient moved from prenatal to labor and delivery to oncology, Expanse followed the full continuum of care and showcased the difference of a truly intelligent and interoperable platform.
MEDITECH leaders also joined multiple Smart Experience Theater sessions as a part of the Interop + Smart Experience.
Transforming Healthcare Through Ambient Listening and Generative AI: From Clinical Documentation to Comprehensive Care Intelligence included panelists from MEDITECH, Microsoft, and SouthEast Alaska Regional Health Consortium (SEARHC).
Navigating the Subtleties of Generative AI in Healthcare: Deployment, Trust, and Responsible Innovation included panelists from MEDITECH, Google, and Frederick Health.
Partnering with global leaders
Taking inspiration from HIMSS’s mission, the MEDITECH team was especially eager to host Lunch & Learn sessions in our booth. They offered an opportunity to hear from global industry leaders employing MEDITECH’s intelligent platform to advance their organizations while remaining independent. The session topics ranged from perfecting patient care to next-level interoperability and how the right digital tools can transform both provider and nurse satisfaction.
