“It’s exhilarating to be recognized as an innovator in health IT technology as we continue forward on the journey to digitizing healthcare,” Michael Trader, president of M2SYS Technology said. “Our RightPatient multi-biometric patient identification system is already helping many hospitals around the world to increase patient safety, reduce duplicate medical records, eliminate fraud at the point of service, streamline the registration process, and ensure healthcare organizations are sharing clean data across Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) and Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs). To be singled out as a finalist for the Fierce Health Innovation Awards is an honor and a true testament to the innovative spirit that encapsulates everything we do here at M2SYS.”
