Absolutely, digital transformation has revolutionized the healthcare industry by making services more convenient and accessible for patients. Telehealth consultations, mobile health apps, and online appointment scheduling are just some examples of how technology is enhancing patient experience and improving healthcare outcomes. This shift towards digitalization not only benefits patients but also streamlines processes for healthcare providers, ultimately leading to more efficient and effective care delivery.

Heather Landi at Fierce Healthcare provides some details of our just-announced partnership with Ochsner Health – including the side-by-side comparison the Ochsner team conducted during the selection process. (Side note: Did you see the STAT article in which an executive called this now-common approach the “Pepsi challenge” of healthcare?) Here’s a quote from the Fierce Healthcare article, advice from Ochsner Health Innovation Officer, Jason Hill, MD, on the importance of clinician adoption when choosing a technology solution: “If you can't find value in the solution, and if you can't get providers to use the solution, nothing else that you do downstream of that is worthwhile.” Read here: https://lnkd.in/gt5FQMc8 You can also read more about the DeepScribe-Ochsner Health partnership on our website: https://lnkd.in/gV6rGnh5

Running a business focused on the local deployment of international digital health products in Asia creates a very nuanced view on the whole interoperability question. This question came into particular focus for the Peach Health Asia team this week as we strategize over what degree do we integrate with a partner digital health product to create a functional digital health service for customers in the region. When it comes to digital health interoperability there are several big considerations that are so blatantly obvious that I'm left dumbfounded when I see them not addressed. Top of this list is not working closely with a clinician when developing a patient facing or clinical workflow digital health tool (really!! 🫨). The fact that articles like the one below need to state this shows it still happens. One of the most interesting I found through our work at Peach is balancing how much of a integration to do with a product to ensure interoperability. Too little integration impacts on interoperability, but to much integration drives up costs and deployment times. Too much integration via more digital touchpoints also pushes up the longer term deployment risk, as changes in either partners tech stack need to be tested to ensure there is no impact on the digital health products functionality. This is something that shouldn't be underestimated given the diversity of tech stacks used by healthcare providers. I have watched with interest the slow penetration of international digital health companies in Asia, and the concurrent rise of local digital health solutions that have struggled to get out of their home market. There are success stories in the region, however these digital health players have tended to create their own patient management ecosystems which limits the need to integrate with the healthcare sector. I suspect this interoperability challenge will be a fixture of the sector until a higher degree of standardisation in healthcare tech reduces this problem, given how slow the healthcare sector is to change I won't be holding my breath for this to happen.

What is the future of healthcare and EMRs in the next decade? It is of upmost importance for HCOs to embrace the foresight in technology. Hope is on the horizon for better patient outcomes and reliable quality data. "Healthcare will transform with personalized treatments using genomics and data analytics. Telehealth will integrate remote monitoring and AI-powered diagnostics for early disease detection," he said. "Seamless interoperability of electronic health records will improve care coordination, while smart infrastructure will enhance operational efficiency and patient experience." https://lnkd.in/eFRHSY8t

The future of healthcare is digital. To ensure a successful digital shift, healthcare organizations can focus transformation efforts on four key areas: ⭐️ Investing in innovation ⭐️ Facilitating digital skills training ⭐️ Fostering collaboration ⭐️ Prioritizing patient-centricity With the right tools and strategies in place, organizations can optimize operational efficiency, elevate patient care, and make the most out of valuable resources. https://hubs.la/Q02GMNM50 #digitalshift #healthcaretechnology #healthorganizations #digitalskills
