FindBiometrics and Mobile ID World recently placed a major focus on strong identity technologies in healthcare applications. That, once again, is the topic of this ID Talk mini-episode, which is a follow up to our recent conversation with HID’s Jeff Carpenter, on how biometrics change healthcare spaces for the better.

In this episode, ID Talk host Peter Counter is joined by Sheila Loy, Director of Healthcare Segment Strategies at HID Global. They talk about how patients use biometrics for authentication at clinics, and the challenges of electronic health records in the era of the data breach, before exploring some of the ways HID Global is serving healthcare professionals like doctors, clinicians and lab workers when it comes to authentication.
