Challenged with an exponential growth of data driven from clinical initiatives, new regulatory reporting requirements, and the ever-increasing complexity of reimbursements, healthcare providers continue to grapple with how to effectively manage and connect disparate data silos. Recent trends suggest that IT executives are now expected to clearly articulate why and how data is brought together by providing an Information Management (IM) strategy that provides stakeholders with secure and fast access to an integrated and trustworthy view of this information - in turn preventing data errors and improving overall data quality.
