IBM's hosted apps land in India

Filed under: Business, Productivity, IBM

Hospitals are willing to upgrade systems and spend revenue on software applications and Big Blue is never too shy to come to the rescue.

Mid-size hospitals in India are now seeing new IT initiatives as a way to gain a competitive advantage against the larger more well known facilities. It's suggested that there was a $300 million untapped hospital service market available for the taking when IBM jumped in and offered up their hardware, middleware and services. The applications that IBM will provide the hospitals are revenue management applications, hospital enterprise resource planning, learning management, health insurance claims processing and performance management applications.

There are only a few hospitals in India that have successfully implemented IT solutions. There are supposedly issues surrounding choice, as well as not much understanding at evaluating different options available.
