Healthcare

Journey to a new tomorrow

The digital transformation in healthcare is overdue

For all the ways that technology is transforming the way people shop, bank, and travel, it has yet to make major inroads into how they receive healthcare. The adoption of digitally enabled tools for diagnosis, treatment, and management, for example, has been modest. Electronic medical records are still not part of routine care. According to research, adoption ranges from just 3 percent in Europe to 35 percent in the United States.

All healthcare stakeholders have a variety of potential roles in digital transformation


1. Government

  • Accelerate adoption
  • Support infrastructure
  • Define standards
  • Develop smart regulations
  • Encourage education

​

2. Payer

  • Use advanced analytics and big data
  • Encourage new market service providers
  • Invest in IT
​

3. Healthcare Provider

  • Design and follow a clear strategy
  • Provide staff education
  • Adopt digital innovations
  • Introduce culture-changing initiatives

​

4. Solution Provider

  • Partner with other stakeholders and academia
  • Demonstrate potential value
  • Offer flexible solutions
  • Convince for disruptive change
