MINNEAPOLIS and CHICAGO (PRWEB) June 28, 2018 -- Chief Information Officers (CIOs) from some of the nation’s leading health systems recently gathered at the 2018 Scottsdale Institute (SI) Annual Conference to discuss their CEOs’ top IT-related priorities. The session provided great insight and important perspective into how a group of leading CIOs from advanced organizations are responding to the rapidly evolving health-delivery landscape, including: digital health and the patient experience; IT cost containment and IT value realization; innovation; support for growth; and cybersecurity.
These five key themes from the roundtable discussion are outlined in the report “CEO and CIO Priorities for Tech-Enabled Healthcare,” which explores top IT-related priorities for health systems; shares valuable insight from CIOs about the rapidly evolving health-delivery landscape; identifies key solutions for success; and explains how many leading hospitals and health systems are preparing for the future.
