The healthcare provider industry has seen of a lot of challenges lately, from the perspective of falling productivity, lower profits and the growing need for convergence with the payer model. It has become a no-brainer for healthcare provider firms, especially large hospital systems, to adopt analytics, EHR, and digitization to enable all or most of their strategic initiatives.
With healthcare provider companies increasingly maturing in their adoption of the outsourced delivery, there is an uptick in demand for research and market intelligence on demand and supply trends in outsourcing.
