Why Telemedicine Isn’t A Temporary Fix — It’s The Future

In March 2020, many office workers packed up their bags under the mandate of their employers, assuming they’d be working from home for a few weeks so the coronavirus could “blow over.” Fast-forward two years: many of those same employees have yet to step foot back into their old offices, and some never will again.  A similar trend is playing out in healthcare. When COVID-19 started, many health systems rapidly adopted virtual care models as a matter of necessity to keep as many non-COVID

Zero Clients: The New Face of Security for Healthcare

Healthcare data is notoriously vulnerable to hacking. The pandemic has stretched industry resources thin, and data quality and security are suffering as a result. In addition, the rise in mobile applications, the adoption of mobile workstations, and the ease with which organizations can now expand into cloud accounts have made the industry more vulnerable than ever before. In short, “the attack surface” is now expansive. According to IDC, an astounding 36% of the world’s

What The Finance Industry Can Teach Healthcare About Digital Transformation

The COVID-19 pandemic feels like a once-in-a-lifetime event for those of us involved in healthcare, but the patterns of how the crisis affected our industry feel familiar. Stop me if you have heard this before: incumbent players in a broad industry made very slow and fragmented technological advances for years with no real threat to their business.

CPQ: Optimizing MedTech Operations and Sales to Accelerate Cash Flow

The lead-to-cash process in most B-to-B organizations––particularly those operating in the medical device industry––is often complex and lengthy. This is even more apparent when operations, sales and customer success teams operate in manual and siloed environments.  In this all-too-common scenario, not only does it slow cash flow velocity, it also leaves the organization vulnerable to inconsistencies, inaccuracies and more errors every time a handoff occurs between

This is promising news for precision medicine, the data-driven healthcare initiative that promotes the right treatment for the right patient at the right time. Precision (or personalized)

Early Use of Diabetes Technology Drives Better Patient Outcomes in Kids

A recent study from Stanford found that pediatric patients with rapid access to continuous glucose monitoring soon after a type 1 diabetes diagnosis had healthier blood sugar values than an earlier group of patients who weren’t given the monitors near the time of diagnosis.  The research provides an example of how the healthcare industry is evolving to use technology: It provides more frequent touchpoints with caregivers, makes quality care available to a larger number of patients, and
