Enterprise Health Systems Solutions

Transforming businesses

Health care provider organizations are consistently racing to comply with health care’s ever changing requirements, a seemingly uphill climb as they struggle with margin pressures and competitors’ moves to take the lead in their markets. From changing reimbursement levels to MACRA readiness and value-based care to electronic health records (EHR), US health care reform is a steady reality, and health care systems are transforming their businesses to operate effectively in this new environment.

Racing against the clock

Deloitte's Enterprise Health Systems Solutions team works with administrators, clinicians, and operational leaders as they migrate to integrated clinical and revenue cycle information systems that support high-quality patient care, administrative cost-effectiveness, strong financial performance, and regulatory compliance.

Beyond our significant experience in driving adoption of EHR systems, we have a strong track record of helping provider organizations adapt to integrated clinical and revenue cycle information systems through effective leadership alignment, change management, workflow and content design, and systems implementation.

Our 550+ consulting team includes physicians, nurses, pharmacists, revenue cycle and administrative leaders who understand the business of health care—who have helped hospital systems, academic medical centers, and standalone facilities realize significant cost savings, maximize their revenue, and transform care delivery. We design and implement enterprise health systems solutions that address the broad spectrum of new regulations and standards. Our work encompasses the people, processes, technology, and data to transform the health system environment. In addition, we have extensive vendor relationships that enable us to help clients select, effectively design, and efficiently implement products to help our clients in their efforts to achieve their vision and goals and successfully address their needs.
