CYBX joined forces with Denodo at the recent California Virtual Summit by the Healthcare Innovation team. Together we discussed all things data management in healthcare, including the issues faced by clinicians, policy changes, data migration with the cloud, and more. Below you can find a recap video of the main discussions.
Pain points for Clinicians
Problems facing clinicians are nothing new, the problem is that with the COVID-19 pandemic, these issues were exasperated added to the focus of providers now.
- Efficiency of accessing patient data
- Quality patient information
- Labor restraints
- Technology shortcomings
Healthcare Delivery
The impact of siloed data has been a continued nuisance to healthcare delivery, causing disruptions and delays for numerous vendors.
- Increased paperwork from pandemic processes
- Aligning policy with practice
- Flexibility in operations
- Federated approach to healthcare delivery
Technical challenges
With all healthcare organizations looking for solutions, it is impossible to ignore the technical challenges that come with data management. With healthcare information distributed across many different systems, many technical challenges arise.
- EMR, EHR, Pharmacy, ER, etc, systems that do not communicate
- Timely and accessible data - information at the point of care
- Siloed patient data
- Geography and demographics
Migration to the cloud
A hot topic in the current state of data, the cloud seems inevitable to many providers. Realistically, the cloud gives access to computing capabilities that are not within the realm of possibility for many providers. For many the appeal of migrating to the cloud looks like;
- Ability to leverage AI, big data, and machine learning
- Cybersecurity in healthcare
- Decrease in IT budget
Policy Impact
In the past year the government has made big moves on moving towards standardization and normalization within the realm of healthcare data, which comes to no surprise for many. Are these policy moves beneficial or harmful to providers across the US?
- Data interchange between resources and people
- Uncertainty in aligning policy and strategy
- Patient owned healthcare data
Final Thoughts
Change is happening within healthcare technology with aims for standardization, efficiency, and patient-centered care.
- An impact on how healthcare is delivered, and the systems supporting it
- Technology architecture made for flexibility and accessibility
- Increased continuous dialogue between clinicians and technologists
Recently we've helped organizations both small and large to align their data strategy across the organization to get the highest buy-in from all parties, while minimizing costs and labor from properly leverage data integration to enhance delivery and patient experience.
