Overview: Healthcare systems in most countries are struggling with the increasing demand for healthcare services, increasing cost, limited financial resources and an increasing public demand for substantial quality improvements. Efficiency gains can help overcome these challenges. Increased automation in healthcare, utilizing electronic solutions designed for process improvements and active workflow management, along with electronic decision support, results in the reduction of error-prone manual process steps and handoffs. This frees financial resources, which can be invested to support further cost containment. Human resources can focus more on patient care, and quality improvements are reducing medical and medication errors.
