Challenges:
The complexity of advanced healthcare IT systems and the lack of user-friendliness have further contributed to physicians’ reluctance to adopt these systems. Many physicians regard the use of healthcare IT solutions as a time-consuming task and perceive them as hampering their interaction with patients. Moreover, in rural areas, factors such as the lack of broadband technology as well as a shortage of experts available to provide technical assistance are responsible for physicians being reluctant about adopting HCIT solutions. All these factors are adversely affecting the uptake of eHealth solutions by healthcare organizations.
Opportunity:
In response to the rising pressures on health systems to lower the cost of care, a majority of healthcare organizations are focusing on introducing specialized outpatient services. The shift toward the outpatient care model is boosting the adoption of eHealth solutions, as these solutions provide a convenient way of care delivery. These solutions provide easier access to appointments and integration among care providers for holistic response toward care delivery. In addition, these solutions help physicians in addressing patient needs (for access) and allow the remote monitoring of the patient’s health. Owing to the benefits of eHealth solutions, various federal bodies are also supporting the deployment of eHealth solutions in outpatient care settings. For instance, the Government of New South Wales (NSW), through its Community Health and Outpatient Care program is still operational as a part of eHealth Strategy for NSW Health: 2016–2026, which focuses on implementing EMR solutions in outpatient care facilities operating throughout NSW. This has boosted the adoption of eHealth solutions among stakeholders in outpatient care facilities to deliver better health services and help enhance patient outcomes. Furthermore, with the benefits of web-based management for constant care, a large number of patients are now moving toward outpatient care needs. For instance, as per a press release by Crain Communications in November 2015, outpatient volume at Flint-based McLaren Health Care Corporation increased to 57% in 2015 from 43% in 2014; this figure is projected to grow to 60% by 2020.
