When applications or services fail, these failures cascade into problems that impact multiple departments, patients and vendors. In some cases, the root cause of these problems can be elusive, making it challenging to prevent similar problems in the future. Health care organizations are particularly vulnerable to these types of issues because they rely on complex IT systems that often involve multiple vendors with intricate contracts and limited governance in managing services delivered.
Fortunately, there is a solution: experienced advisors at Hall Render Advisory Services.
