Today many healthcare organizations are dealing with vast amounts of data from a myriad of sources across their IT systems while struggling with aging IT infrastructure and layers of legacy technologies which are expensive to maintain. This demands intelligent data integration tools to enable organizations to have robust access to accurate and comprehensive data.
Orion Health CEO, Ian McCrae, believes that migrating from on premises servers to cloud-based services provides many benefits.
“As the healthcare sector takes advantage of the benefits of moving to the cloud as other industries have, and with the recent developments in healthcare compliance and certification, Orion Health is evolving solutions to help healthcare organizations transform their IT systems, helping them deliver improved patient care,” said McCrae in a statement. “And as demands on healthcare IT systems increase, improving financial performance remains a priority for most public and private health organizations. Taking advantage of Rhapsody as a Service’s simplicity, organizations can quickly realize cost savings, improve flexibility, reduce risk and increase security, deploy IT faster, and increase scalability.”
