Healthcare SaaS Solutions: Driving Digital Transformation in Hospitals
Advertisement
If you happen to walk into any hospital located in a tier two Indian city today, it would not be hard to see how the hospital's registration desk, its pharmacy billing desk, and even its accounting department are all run on software not owned by the hospital, but accessed through the Internet, subscribed to and managed by people hundreds of kilometres away. This is the reality of Healthcare SaaS, which has silently become the driving force behind India's effort to digitise its hospitals, right from multi-city hospital chains to one-time small clinics that never had enough money to hire an IT department. This article will tell us exactly what healthcare SaaS is, what position India's hospitals hold in healthcare SaaS, and what obstacles lie ahead.
What is Healthcare SaaS?
Healthcare SaaS refers to cloud-based software that is provided via internet subscription by vendors, rather than being set up and maintained on local hospital servers. Instead of buying expensive equipment and employing IT specialists to support the system, the hospital uses a browser or an application to access the software, and the company manages its performance.
