Tectonic shifts are occurring in this 1/6th of the US economy

  • The Affordable Care Act will create a new set of winners and losers.
  • The winners are employing technology creatively to improve delivery and lower costs.
  • Use of electronic records – EMR/EHR systems – has increased manifold.
  • As the market shifts to ACO’s with an emphasis on capitation-based payments keeping track of real costs will become even more important. Again, technology will play a key role here.
  • Dramatic improvements in communications and mobility are making telemedicine and home health care increasingly important.
  • Creative firms are emulating retail firms to establish long-term contacts and relationships with patients, advising them on lifestyle choices, appointments etc.

By virtue of our experience, we have a strong understanding of the issues of concern to healthcare firms, the competitive environments they operate in, the 'language' they use and, most important, how technology can assist in meeting their goals.
