Expertise and Experience in IT Strategic Planning

​

ePartners Group is a sought-after partner for healthcare IT strategic planning. Our experience, expertise and methodology have helped us earn the trust of leading delivery organizations. Our IT Strategic Planning engagements often involve at least one of the following activities.

​

• IT Assessments. Our assessments are thorough and proven, evaluating people, process and technology. We objectively assess performance against relevant peers using relevant metrics.

​

• IT Strategic Plan. Our IT roadmaps support clinical / operational objectives, yet are actionable and deliver near-term results. IT objectives and services must address your organization’s specific market nuances, culture, and internal capacity. The plan must also consider emerging industry trends. We usually facilitate plan development, and often update IT governance between IT and executive leadership to ensure long-term accountability.

​

• Healthcare Vendor Selection. ePartners Group can assist in a variety of ways. Some clients want an independent party to facilitate a full selection process involving executive education, proposal development, and vendor evaluation. Other clients choose an abbreviated process, or selective expertise. We have the tools and experience to expedite these activities in a fair manner.

​

• Cost / Benefit Modeling. We help determine the total cost of ownership (TCO) for major IT investments ranging from electronic health record (EHR) implementation to a community hospital acquisition.

IT strategic planning often provides the basis for endeavors such as EHR implementation, analytics, and/or revenue cycle optimization.
