The healthcare landscape has been subject to significant turbulence on account of a gamut of factors. Some of these are escalating costs, declining margins, widespread regulatory amendments, shift from volume- to value-based care model, and rising consumerism. This has driven healthcare firms to undertake digital transformation initiatives as well as revamp their existing systems, processes, and interfaces to improve revenue, reduce costs, and optimize existing processes. To take advantage, vendors need to step up and act as strategic partners to these enterprises in their digital transformation journeys.
