2019 Healthcare IT Demand Survey: Digital and AI are Top Priorities in 2019, EHR Systems Continue to Dominate IT Spend
Damo Consulting, a healthcare growth and digital transformation advisory firm based in Chicago, recently released their 3rd annual Healthcare IT Demand Survey report.
CHICAGO, Jan. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Damo Consulting, a healthcare growth and digital transformation advisory firm based in Chicago, recently released their 3rd annual Healthcare IT Demand Survey report. The report indicates technology vendors will continue to struggle with long sales cycles as they aggressively market digital and AI. For the second year in a row, the rise of non-traditional players such as Amazon and Google will have a strong impact on the competitive environment among technology vendors while EHR vendors grow in dominance.
Top spending priorities for healthcare executives are digital, advanced analytics and AI. However, spending on EHR systems will dominate technology spending budget in 2019. Healthcare executives continue to be confused by the buzz around AI and digital and struggle to make sense of the changing landscape of who is playing what role and the blurred lines of capabilities and competition.
"Digital and AI are emerging as critical areas for technology spend among healthcare enterprises in 2019. However, healthcare executives are realistic around their technology needs vs. their need to improve care delivery. They find the currently available digital health solutions in the market are not very mature," says Paddy Padmanabhan, CEO Damo Consulting. "However, they are also more upbeat about the overall IT spend growth than their technology vendors."
Damo Consulting's report, 2019 Healthcare IT Demand Survey, analyzes how the demand environment for healthcare IT is changing and will impact the industry in the coming year, the challenges for healthcare organizations, the perceived impact of macro-level changes, and more.
