Synopsis and overview of the session

What do SpotCheck, Stemcell, Medtronic, NHS England have in common? They had an idea and a need that they wanted to digitise – FAST!

Focus Network, in partnership with OutSystems, will bring IT leaders in Australia’s healthcare space for a discussion with Omar Shraim, IT Senior Director in ATC and CIO for Sapphire© HMS, who achieved true agility in digitalising complex hospital systems for the healthcare industry in Kuwait whilst ensuring that the systems met the parameters set by the Kuwait Ministry of Health.

This is a great opportunity to have a conversation with Omar and your peers in the healthcare industry

• Discuss the lesson learnt in 2020, challenges ahead and how technology can help to enable patients and health outcomes rapidly, seamlessly and at the scale required.
• A time to rethink digital initiatives that may have been previously de-prioritised due to various reasons, such as lack of funding and maybe also re-examine traditional approaches to digitisation; build, buy or both?
• Further, how can organisations that have ramped up technology adoption keep the momentum going?

Key takeaways:

• Leverage existing investments and teams whilst augmenting your business with value added innovation through rapid application development
• Build a transformation velocity that is responsive to your company’s needs and can weather external influences (regulations, uncertainties, and disruptions)
• Adopt a modern, development platform without overwhelming the business and taking too much risk
