Healthcare ID: IDEMIA's Tim Brown on the Great Potential of Mobile ID in Healthcare

UPDATED: FindBiometrics and Mobile ID World have spent the recent weeks focusing on new identity technologies in healthcare, and how biometrics can enhance patient ID, electronic health records, and even diagnosis. That focus on healthcare was in preparation for the 2020 HIMSS Conference in Orlando, which since the original publication of this podcast has been cancelled due to concerns around the COVID-19 Coronavirus. FindBiometrics was scheduled to host an expert fireside chat about mobile ID in the healthcare sector, moderated by FindBometrics President Peter O’Neill and featuring a special guest: Tim Brown, IDEMIA’s Senior Director of Technology and Chief Technologist for Digital Identity in North America. This episode was initially intended as a preview of that chat, but it can also be heard as a standalone episode about this fascinating intersection of identity and healthcare. ID Talk's interview with Tim Brown starts off with an introduction to IDEMIA’s mobile ID solution and the technology and standards that make it possible, before moving on to the specific ways it can be deployed in healthcare. He talks about patient ID, ePrescriptions, and telemedicine before speculating on the future of a mobile ID empowered healthcare landscape. It’s a fascinating conversation, and a great way to keep the healthcare ID discourse rolling in lieu of HIMSS.
