Transition takes on many faces – a company may update its business platforms, change its ownership structure, or encounter the need to take strong measures to correct its financial situation. In all of these cases, having a managed services partner who can grab the steering wheel during the storm is essential to staying on course.
A large university hospital made the big decision – It was time to consolidate three separate and unrelated EHR (Electronic Health Records) systems into a single platform. The platform chosen was not one of the existing three, so not only was the consolidation of systems an issue, everyone using the systems was required to learn a completely new platform. The migration would require months of staff training to ensure that everything worked smoothly in the end.

Although it’s been said that “the seed of your next problem lies in your current solution,” sometimes the seed of your long-term solution lies in your short-term problem
