Delivering high-quality care may be the number one priority for healthcare providers, but reducing costs is always an imperative. The key to this is finding ways to streamline processes, eliminate inefficiency, increase productivity, and improve decision-making, thereby allowing physicians and staff to spend more time on patient-focused activities.
Web 2.0 is profoundly changing the way we work and interact. More than 90 of the top 100 Web sites are categorized as social networking or search sites, supporting dynamic or user-generated content. Many organizations are embracing the Web as a business platform, but Web 2.0 technologies, such as blogs, wikis, social networking sites, and RSS feeds, render traditional security technologies such as antivirus, Web reputation, and basic URL filtering ineffective.
Enterprise Resource Planning has been the ultimate solution to many sectors and healthcare is no exception. Hospitals require more connectivity because the information to be passed is vital and will not serve the purpose if it does not reach in time.
