| Share of Wallet?: Telecom Trends
and Expenditures in the US Healthcare Industry |
 |
This deep dive study takes a closer
look at the telecom spending in the healthcare vertical. Telecom
spending includes both services and equipment, as well as wireline
and wireless. Both voice and data services are covered in this
study, along with the telecom and market trends. Survey data
on areas such as spending priorities, IP investment, purchasing
channels, and vendor relationships is also included in this
report.
In the midst of this slowly progressing economy and an
increasingly challenging competitive environment, the healthcare
vertical has created great opportunities for telecom vendors
and has also remained a leading industry in telecom services
and equipment spending. Telecommunications has continued to
play an important role in the medical arena, including in such
areas as administration, staff communications, patient monitoring,
patient scheduling, prescription management, diagnostics, imaging,
and patient services. Healthcare telecom decision-makers are
becoming more tech-savvy, especially in the areas of IP telephony
and wireless communications. All of this has led to a growing
opportunity in the healthcare vertical, as well as pressured
telecom vendors to develop customized telecom solutions that
aid in specific medical applications. |
