It is understood that Hospital Information System is one of the most complicated, most daunting, most laborious, most costly, and thus most hated projects in a hospital environment. Millions of dollars and hours of labor have been spent dedicated to finding the perfect HIS, and yet the search has been futile. So in the end, hospitals choose to
build their own HIS thinking that they have the knowledge and the expertise to do so. So why don’t most hospitals employ this homegrown method, and why increasingly more hospitals see this as a the least viable option?
Hospitals are not IT companies.
Hospitals do have the inside knowledge of how the workflow should be, but transferring this knowledge into a functional IT system are two different things. Technology keeps changing, and hospitals are not in the forefront to think of these changes, whereas IT companies always consider these technological advancements when building a system. Without a clear technological path ahead, the homegrown system might not be scalable.
Over complication. The tendency when a hospital has the all the expertise in its hand is to build an HIS that can cater to all the needs of the administrators, physicians, clinicians, and patients. This can be time-consuming and costly very quickly. With an outside approach looking in, an IT company can focus on establishing priorities and managing inefficients with fresh outlook. This will become more manageable and executable.
Lack of focus. With so many things going on in a hospital setting, the hospital’s IT department can be easily inundated with everyday operational tasks and not be focused on building the HIS. This will lead to delays and frustrations.
As a software company specifically catering to healthcare providers, MEDICO , can appease the aforementioned problems. We provide scalable, comprehensive, reliable, and affordable system no matter what size your organization is.
