    Healthcare IT Organizations are pressed to deliver results at a rapid pace with limited resources and financial constraints. Technology investments and strategic decisions based upon incomplete data can be costly – not only in terms of time and money but also because it hampers operational efficiency. Having a reliable, business-relevant assessment of an organization’s technical infrastructure (including compute, network, peripheral assets, applications, active directory objects and network traffic) are paramount in the IT decision making process, especially when it comes to mergers and acquisitions, refreshing hardware, relocations, application rationalization, and licensing alignment. The ability to turn data into information that can be used to make business decisions can allow healthcare organizations to optimize the technical aspects of their clinical environments, improve customer satisfaction, increase adoption, and enhance patient care. Looking for our CHIME members to provide feedback on the solution, help us prioritize use cases that are most valuable and critique our strategy and approach.
