Abstract
This Health Industry Insights report provides an analysis of market dynamics
and trends affecting the acquisition, implementation, and use of technology by
U.S. healthcare providers for healthcare delivery and management.
"The technology available to providers is approaching a turning point where
available delivery models and applications are increasingly accessible and easy
to use and provide near-term benefits and much-needed data exchange and
interoperability functions," states analyst Judy Hanover, research manager,
Health Industry Insights. These technologies are highlighted in this report,
with an emphasis on their potential to supply economic and clinical value in
terms of quality, cost, time, and flexibility, as they are used at the point of
care in ambulatory and inpatient facilities as well as in homes and other care
settings.
