VENDOR CONSOLIDATION CHECKLIST
A CIO’s Guide to Smarter RCM Solutions
Today’s healthcare CIOs face more significant challenges than ever before. The frenetic pace of changing business models and technology landscapes are pressuring organizations, and CIOs specifically, to offer swifter, smarter support for their revenue cycle leaders and create long-term strategies to solidify a foundation for operational excellence and growth. However, CIOs must tackle complex issues to succeed—including dealing with highly sensitive patient data that is at risk from cyber-attacks, addressing operational demands with limited staff and having a long list of cumbersome, manual processes amidst hundreds of IT applications.
