Summary:The author joined forces with Jim Keller -- who is VP of Health Technology Evaluation and Safety for the ECRI Institute, as well as the new president of the American College of Clinical Engineering -- to lead a break-out session they called "Blue Sky." In their perfect world, they imagined the healthcare technology management (HTM) department would be the undisputed expert within the hospital for all things involving clinical device technology. Unfortunately, there are still HTM professionals who lack the vision or are not willing to put in the effort to transform their traditional fix-it shop into a modern HTM department. If you do not understand that healthcare will change dramatically in the next several years, it's time to take your nose out of the service manual and pay attention.
