NantHealth : Top 4 barriers and solutions to clinical excellence in today's healthcare system

Published: 2022-01-17 11:55:07 ET NH

As we step into another pandemic year, it's important to remember all the needs the healthcare system had for change before COVID. Before the pandemic, we had a healthcare system that was brilliant but costly and inconsistent across populations and care needs. COVID demonstrated all those things were truer than we realized. If we want to focus on patients and the health of our communities in a broad way, we will need a lot more than brilliant (though burned out) clinical practitioners and creative pharmaceutical minds. We need to look at the significant obstacles to reform that existed before COVID. In this 2022 kick-off blog, I will review key barriers and solutions to the healthcare future we need.

Like every other industry in America, technology can be transformative - if we change the environment in which technology operates. While in the past, our hopes and dreams did not have tactical technology to make a transition a reality, today, it can. Through a combination of clear-eyed value transparency, and a willingness to disrupt existing stakeholders and processes, we can radically improve care quality and reduce costs. The technology is now here to create a revolution to care, just like America's prior farming and manufacturing revolution, as long as we are willing to try.
