Understanding The Hospital IT Landscape

The healthcare industry has quietly shed the laggards tag and have quickly emerged as frontrunners in digitization. Hospitals are driving technology advancements by creating a digital framework for seamless integration of all aspects of patient care and administration. There are 5 major themes that are seen as critical in the hospital IT ecosystem – Smart Care, Patient Information Management, Remote Care, Medical Devices, and Intelligent Enterprise Systems.
Large enterprises such as Microsoft and Accenture are collaborating with healthcare providers to address a variety of use cases such as chronic disease management, virtual care solutions, risk scoring, patient tracking and monitoring, precision medicine, and patient on/off-boarding.
