90% of new medications in the pipeline are specialty drugs. At HIMSS26, Dr. Colin Banas shared what that means for clinicians: More complexity. More rules. More to keep up with than ever before. The solution? Smarter clinical decision support that helps providers focus on care—not chasing constantly changing requirements.
