Engagement, Interoperability, and the Future of the Healthcare Tech Stack

Engagement, Interoperability, and the Future of the Healthcare Tech Stack

For all of the advanced clinical technology hospitals across the country leverage to stay on the bleeding edge of innovative patient care, healthcare, as an industry, has been extremely slow to adapt when it comes to implementing modern technology to improve everyday processes—both inside and outside clinical settings. In many hospitals, manual phone calls and fax machines are still some of the most relied upon methods for exchanging information.

Healthcare IT, meanwhile, has traditionally been a world of walled gardens. The importance of data confidentiality, security, and compliance paved the way for safe but cumbersome information standards like HL7, founded over 30 years ago. In addition, the proprietary technologies of legacy EHR monoliths were often specifically designed to stifle competition and increase reliance on a single central EHR solution focused on upsell opportunities.
