Healthcare
Reducing costs while improving the quality of care
We found that CGI has an excellent track record and was one of very few companies in this market that has any real implementation experience, especially when it comes to interfacing to the MEDITECH system.
The healthcare industry’s long-standing priorities are to reduce costs, decrease medical errors and improve productivity. Promising developments are helping governments and organizations reach these goals as never before. There is global progress toward the adoption of the electronic health record (EHR). Solutions such as ePrescribing are driving new forms of innovation. Yet limited resources make the transformation to the electronic healthcare environment difficult to achieve.
To overcome this challenge, governments, healthcare providers and payers are adopting interoperability standards and moving to a more cost-effective shared services model to remove silos and to leverage applications and platforms across multiple organizations. They are also adopting Web technologies that provide easy and enhanced access to consolidated clinical and administrative information. Through a strategic mix of local contracting and global sourcing, healthcare organizations are reaching new levels of performance and price.
CGI is a leader in helping government healthcare departments, providers and payors harness the power of technology to lower their costs and enhance productivity while improving the quality of care. We focus on those EHR and shared services solutions that deliver immediate and measurable value. We also manage non-core yet critical IT and back-office functions on behalf of clients, allowing organizations to focus on what matters most—providing high-quality care.
