Roman Franklin, our MD Buyline analyst in this field suggests that health care organizations create a risk-based decision-making approach, as well as establish more stringent control policies related to provider and employee information access.
A knowledgeable CIO and/or chief security officer (CSO) can have a profound effect on achieving these goals, and I’m certain we’ll see many companies here at HIMSS this week with products to protect your organization.

Contract life cycle management
Contract life cycle management is another area of health care administration where chief information officers find themselves hip-deep in potential opportunities or problems, depending on your perspective.
The average hospital has more than 4,000 contracts for goods and services. A well-developed system to bid, execute, and monitor these services can yield a bonanza of savings and a chance for hospital administration to focus on the true business at hand, healing. Done poorly, it can eat up already thin margins and open us to the risk of non-compliance litigation.
Our MediTract division has developed Process Manager, the only health care-specific contract management solution to control contract work flows. It is your end-to-end contract life cycle management solution, implementing processes and controls, and the aforementioned mitigating compliance risks.
