Improve Patient Care while Ensuring Resiliency

Consumers expect more from their healthcare providers, including choice, value, and connected digital experiences. Meanwhile, the healthcare industry has to juggle these interests alongside:

  • the threat of cyberattacks
  • aging IT systems
  • staying HIPAA compliant
  • opportunities presented by telemedicine support services and IoT medical devices

The Future of Healthcare

Telemedicine, remote monitoring, and the IoT market are all contributing to the rapid rise of technology in care delivery. The IoT market is predicted to reach $158 billion by 2022. Telemedicine is set to grow at an approximate CAGR of 36.5% from 2022 to 2028. Remote monitoring of chronic conditions could save as much as $200 billion over the next 25 years in the U.S. 

Challenges in the Healthcare Sector

Despite this growth in technology, adoption is variable. While 90% of healthcare organizations are offering patient portal access, less than a third are using the portals. Poor digital experiences for patients can also prevent adoption or hinder future adoption of new healthcare technology. 

So can a lack of information security and redundancies, leaving vulnerable patient personal data at risk. 82% of U.S. hospitals experienced a significant cyber attack in the past 12 months. More than 1,200 healthcare provider sites were hit with ransomware attacks in 2021.

Improving the Healthcare Experience

To engage patients, your healthcare organization needs to deliver services and information in an accessible way. This helps patients improve their health, all while sending data securely between providers. AI, machine learning, and IoT medical devices can aid a fully connected virtual healthcare experience. These technologies will change the way organizations conduct patient care and data management.

Secure Critical Patient Data

Healthcare organizations must safeguard patient and employee data, as well as comply with state and federal regulations like HIPAA and HITECH. Unauthorized access to health records provides cybercriminals with valuable information that can be used to obtain new bank accounts, credit cards, and prescription medications. Balancing patient digital expectations while keeping their personal health information (PHI) secure, and systems up and running can be complex but is mission critical for any healthcare organization.
