Healthcare IT Investments to Center on Core Products, Mobility Solutions and Consumer-oriented Devices, New CompTIA Study Shows.

Investments by healthcare professionals and providers in new information technology (IT) products and solutions will center on core products such as PCs, printers, phone systems and networking equipment, with some consumer electronics devices mixed in, according to new research from CompTIA.

CompTIA’s Second Annual Healthcare IT Insights and Opportunities study also reveals that healthcare providers are generally satisfied with the IT solutions they now use in their practices. But they’re also interested in better reliability, improved performance and lower costs for future purchases.

“Healthcare providers have clear objectives for their IT investments – reducing costs, saving time, improving productivity and most importantly, improving patient care,” said Tim Herbert, vice president, research, CompTIA. “Anything that may disrupt patient care is a serious issue, so product reliability is especially critical.”

Healthcare providers rely on core IT products to care for patients and manage their practices, with desktop and laptop PCs, printers, phone systems and networking equipment the norm at the vast majority of practices. Over the next 12 months, healthcare providers will engage in replacement purchases to refresh outdated equipment and make investments in new equipment to add additional capabilities.
