Inhaltsangabe

In Unvendor: Innovate Healthcare with a Diverse IT Stack, Dr. Harm Scherpbier challenges the healthcare industry’s reliance on single-vendor IT systems. While single-vendor solutions offer ease of maintenance, they often stifle innovation, hinder agility, and result in costly monopolies. In this timely and thought-provoking book, Dr. Scherpbier argues for a return to diversity in healthcare IT―a “best-of-breed” approach that integrates advanced technologies from multiple vendors to power a more dynamic, competitive, and resilient healthcare ecosystem.

Drawing on decades of experience as a health IT strategist, physician, and CMIO, Dr. Scherpbier explores the history of healthcare IT dominance, its limitations, and the pressing need for change. He outlines actionable steps for organizations to embrace modular, interoperable technologies, enabling faster adoption of AI, machine learning, and patient-centric tools.

Unvendor is a call to action for healthcare leaders―CIOs, CMIOs, CEOs, and CFOs―to create flexible, future-ready IT environments that improve care delivery, clinician satisfaction, and organizational efficiency. Practical, insightful, and forward-looking, this book provides the framework to transform healthcare IT, ensuring organizations can adapt to a rapidly evolving landscape.
