Blood pressure monitors, personal fitness trackers, and even genomic data become more common as digitized health records become the standard.
Fremont, CA: Although the healthcare industry has been reluctant to adopt new technology compared to the retail or industrial sectors, the good news is that businesses across industries already see the value in doing so.Blood pressure monitors, personal fitness trackers, and even genomic data become more common as digitized health records become the standard.
Digital transformation, on the other hand, can be a complex process, especially in a conventional industry like healthcare. Let's have a look at the top obstacles that businesses must overcome to achieve successful digital transformation.
By definition, digital transformation entails a shift in how businesses think and operate beyond investing in new technologies, requiring a mindset shift. From the CEO to the doctors to the nurses and other personnel, everyone in the hospital must be on the same page. The first and most important challenge in a successful digital transformation is overcoming the all-too-familiar fear of change.
The financial aspect is one aspect that puts most digital transformation ambitions on the backburner. Healthcare businesses often concentrate on the return on investment (ROI) rather than the marketing strategy that a digitally-powered system may provide.
In addition, agile businesses realize that adopting a digital strategy provides them with more scalability, revenue, and profit than the traditional way. Instead of focusing on the cost, it's wiser to consider the money saved once inefficient procedures address digital transformation.
