Healthcare Organizations Must Prioritize Clinical Care Resiliency

Organizations must prioritize clinical care resiliency as cyberattacks grow with more intensity, and as health systems rely more on services that offer less direct security control but allow them to spin up capabilities to scale.The previous wisdom in healthcare IT was to own and manage your infrastructure, but as many organizations have learned, their core competencies did not lie in maintaining servers and updating data centers. Their core competencies are in delivering high-quality patient care. So, it made sense to rely on technology partners that could better handle the cloud, for instance, or deploy Software as a Service solutions that were also cost-effective. These companies were also more likely to have the team members necessary to support a new solution, compared with smaller health systems with limited IT departments.
