Overcoming the Challenges

While we have seen in the last panel that all the countries in our study are proceeding on the journey to connected health, significant barriers and challenges continue to hinder progress.

Incentivizing change:
Only 1 in 5 physicians receive incentives for proactively managing patients with chronic conditions.

Less than 20% receive incentives for

achieving clinical quality of care targets.

Measures to ensure security and data:

10% or less receive incentives for

80%

coordinating care with other organizations.

of physicians use smartcards or passwords with their systems.

Challenge Groups:

Top 5 Barriers for Doctors

Systems and Policies Patients and the Public Organization and Management

Clinicians and End Users

Cost to my organization

Concerns over privacy and security of data

IT systems that cant talk to each other

Excessive time required to input data

Lack of financial incentives

The Dynamics of Successful Connected Health

Six key dynamics characterize those systems and organizations that are successfully progressing on the journey to connected health by creating the new relationships and practices that will ensure healthcare IT interoperability and help drive better, more integrated healthcare delivery for citizens.
Vision and Leadership Strategic Change Management Robust Technology Infrastructure Co-Evolution Clinical Change Management

Integration Drives Integration

The 6 dynamics lay a solid foundation for connected health

Balancing the 6 Dynamics

The 6 Dynamics are not a one-time investment; they are a virtuous cycle that requires striking a delicate balance. When implemented in manageable bites, healthcare organizations will continue to grow and improve care delivery to patients and communities.
Clarity on the objectives & benefits of the end state before building the healthcare IT infrastructure. Carefully orchestrating change across the organization that aligns directly to a mission and a vision. Should be compatible with organizational vision & objectives, and governed with clear standards of health information interoperability & exchange. Striking the right balance between strong leadership & vision from the top, and room for bottomup experimentation & innovation. Frontline healthcare delivery works in parallel with strategic change management at the organizational level.
