HealthStream recently published its annual white paper on the top ten trends healthcare leaders can expect in the coming year. The paper was authored by Robin Rose, MHA, Thought Leadership Consultant. This blog will focus on the second two of the ten trends identified in the paper. Future blogs will cover the remaining trends.
In 2019, healthcare leaders were focused on implementing new technology that would improve the safety, quality and efficiency of healthcare. In early 2020, as it became clear that COVID-19 had reached pandemic levels, it also became obvious that those leaders would need to pivot and focus on the crisis. As cases began to decrease in 2022, leaders once again turned their attention to emerging technologies.
Top technology priorities for healthcare are:
Cybersecurity will remain a serious concern for healthcare leaders as 2022 is on track to be a record-breaking year for the number of breaches. The HIPAA Journal reports that in 2021, an average of 1.95 healthcare breaches exposing 500 or more records were reported each day – nearly double from 2018.
Employee education, enhanced regulations, and encryption have reduced the number of breaches caused by loss or theft. However, recent reports indicate that hacking and unapproved access continue to be frequent causes of breaches.
