Synopsis and overview of the session

The effect of today’s unprecedented circumstances healthcare delivery has been and continues to be very significant. The lockdown has shown how systems can be overwhelmed and temporarily coping is not the solution. This is a pivotal time for the digitisation of processes and systems in healthcare, putting an emphasis on initiatives that may have been previously deprioritised for various reasons. Also, it’s time to re-examine traditional approaches to digitisation; build, buy or both? Further, how can organisations that have ramped up technology adoption keep the momentum going?

Focus Network, in partnership with OutSystems, invite IT Leaders to a round table with Shayne Hunter – Deputy Director-General, Ministry of Health and David Norman – General Manager, Optimation New Zealand as we discuss the rapid adoption of technology in the healthcare during the COVID crisis, what we learned, and how can we continue the pace of adoption and delivery.

Key takeaways:

  • Learnings from COVID crisis in terms of technology adoption to improve business outcomes
  • How can healthcare organisations maintain the pace of technology adoption achieved during the crisis?
  • What does the ecosystem look like in the future for the health sector?
