The mission for Health IT is too important to be behind the curve
The distinctive of a successful Health IT operation is agility and efficiency by design.
A Depiction of The Healthcare Data Center After a Decade of Bolt-Ons
It’s Hard To Build Next Generation Healthcare On Top of This ?
We've been behind the curve
We inherited an IT organization that was tied in knots.
In the fall of 2011 we were brought in as leaders at a $6BN health system that faced:
- 50% of the data center equipment and 60% of workstations were end-of-life
- 1,800 instances of 900 distinct applications
- 9 Acute care EHR instances
- A clinically integrated network with >90 EHRs
- A data center that had just gone completely down 8 times in 6 weeks.
We emerged from that, we got ahead and started winning and it is exhilarating
24 months later
- 1 Acute EHR
- Reduced data center footprint from 12 to 2. Avoiding $15M in data center investments
- Reduced server provisioning from 2 weeks to 2 minutes
- Developed and launched multi-EHR portal in 30 days
- Developed and launched online clinic check-in application in 7 days
We believe every Health IT organization has it within them to be great.
