IT CAPITAL PLANNING PROCESS
Transition from Fee-for-Service
The healthcare industry is in the midst of a business transformation to value-
based care and consumer centricity, requiring new means of orchestrating
services across the ecosystem. Key business transformations and their
implications include:
• Changing the value models for healthcare: shared risk, shared
financial and shared care delivery responsibilities
• Consumer centricity: meeting the health needs of a consumer requires
the transition from engagement within fragmented healthcare
interactions to longitudinal health engagement
• Continuing record pace of mergers and acquisitions: resulting in
increased health engagement capabilities across an organization, but
complex technical environments and new value streams
• Introduction of digital health and digital medicine
capabilities: Integrating digital health and medicine into health and
healthcare is increasing the number of new business partners and the
orchestration of their participation.
