“Successful implementation of HIT is mostly about people and process, not technology.”
- Frank Richards, CIO Geisinger Health Systems
Challenges in Healthcare
✦ Improve operational efficiency >> making things easier in more ways than one
✦ Transformation of data -- unstructured and structured -- into accessible & actionable intelligence
✦ Advances in medicine & technology
✦ Demand for high quality patient care
✦ Regulations & standards
Buy and Build
Healthcare IT is mostly about compromise, so it's rarely a pure buy or a pure build issue.
✦ IT Team Size
✦ With smaller IT teams, the propensity to procure or acquire systems is higher
✦ Type of System
✦ Front line or core systems are build decisions
✦ Identify which are commoditized
✦ Cost
✦ Commoditized systems aren't often economical
✦ VENDOR FLEXIBILITY, LOCK-IN & SCALABILITY
What’s more important?
✦ Create strong Governance processes that align with BUSINESS priorities
✦ Think BIG, start small
