One of the key challenges facing healthcare providers is to provide efficient patient care at an optimal cost. In a hospital healthcare environment, information is fragmented across multiple disparate systems. For hospitals to provide better patient care, the imperative is to integrate their clinical data with their financial and administrative data. Data integration has always remained the most critical challenge for healthcare enterprises. The challenge associated with integrating data from multiple sources is that it is very tedious, time-consuming, and comes with a high cost.

In today’s context, hospital healthcare providers are increasingly reliant on applications and systems that enable quality patient care.

The Role of Technology

In hospital healthcare, technology is increasingly playing a role in almost all processes, from patient registration to data monitoring, from lab tests to self-care tools.

Increasing diffusion of technology into many streams of healthcare has enabled hospitals to provide patient-centric services, resulting in improved access to healthcare, greater patient safety and enhanced healthcare delivery.

In a healthcare enterprise, technology equips healthcare professionals for the various challenges confronting them. By providing access to accurate and meaningful information, responsive technology plays a key role in a digital healthcare environment.
