[RECORDED PANEL DISCUSSION - original broadcast date July 23, 2020]
Provider Perspectives: Cloud’s Contribution to Organizational Resiliency & the Care Delivery Model – A Panel Discussion.

Providers do not go into medicine to practice technology. The time and expense associated with purchasing and maintaining hardware, software licensing and patching, managing back-ups, security upgrades and monitoring, as well as disaster recovery impacts your ability to focus on what matters most—patient care. Cloud-based IT solutions can help reduce complexity, better position you in times of crisis, and improve your clinical care delivery model.

Moderated by the editors of SmartBrief, this 45-minute roundtable discussion will feature IT leaders and experts who will relate the resiliency offered by the cloud:
• Operational efficiency, a function of application access and system performance
• Financial stability, predictable financial allocations flexibly tied to practice priorities
• Care delivery, including clinical workflows enabling providers to practice at the height of their licensure
