About this Session:
Hundreds of systems to manage your operations? Redundant solutions to solve similar problems? One-off applications creating tech bloat? Sound familiar? Despite much progress, we lack a certain efficiency in today?s healthcare tech stack. Communications are in gridlock. Data flows are congested. Revenues are stalled. Add on a recession, inflation, and a workforce shortage, and suddenly, your road becomes perilous. The tools to collectively address the challenges in healthcare fall into a new and evolving category?healthcare operations. Healthcare operations encompass the administrative tasks of a hospital, including finance, provider data management, workforce management, healthcare governance, compliance, and risk management. It is rooted in the principle that a unified, human-centered approach to healthcare operations produces better outcomes. Healthcare operations software is already being used to identify value in supply chain spending and contracts, comply with changing regulations, and create an appealing digital front door to increase patient acquisition. In this session, we will unveil insights from a new survey of hospital and health system CIOs and technology leaders. The traffic jam of applications in your hospital is just one of many. To unlock new efficiencies, you need the scoop on the current state of hospital operations technology, the challenges that leaders are currently facing, and the future of the industry.
