Gamification will be presented in terms of compliance with HIPAA and HITECH regulations. \nThis panel will educate participants in learning what Gamification is and will discuss how healthcare systems are using Gamification to engage patients\, improve patient experience and quality measures/outcomes\, and open organizational perspective to the endless possibilities for its use in healthcare. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Register Now\n \n \n \n \n \n Panelists Will Discuss: \n\nWhat are the underlying principles of the psychology of Gamification\, and how can it be used to change behaviors or increase learning?\nHow can Gamification potentially reduce cognitive overload among employees\, such as nurses and doctors\, and possibly improve knowledge acquisition?\nHow can points\, leaderboards\, and badges used in gamification lead to behavior change or increased motivation in an individual or group?\nHow can Gamification improve the patient’s overall experience?\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Moderator: \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Marlene Sidon\, FACHE\,Founder and Principal Consultant\,Service Quality Solutions LLC \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Panelists: \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Laura Fleischfresser\, MBA\, RN\,Co-Founder\, VP of Clinical Affairs\,Gratia Health \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Panelists: \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Anthony Harrell\,Director of Information Security & Information Technology\, and the Senior Information Security Officer\,SGMC Health \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Panelists: \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Robin Krieglstein\,CEO and Founder\,Live Neuron Labs\, LLC \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Event Details:February 13\, 2026\, 12:00 pm to 1:30 pm Eastern Time \nLocation:This program will be delivered via Zoom using ACHE National’s learning management system. \nAgenda:Noon to 1:30 pm: Education program and Q&A discussion1:30 pm: Conclude \nCEUs:1.5 Hours of ACHE Virtual Interactive Education Credit \nCOST:ACHE Member: $30Non-Member: $35Students: $20 \nNote: Registration is capped at 90 registrants.
