The last two years have seen rapid advancements in AI technology, which has risen to the top of many healthcare organizations’ IT priority lists as they seek to ease pressures caused by staffing shortages, budget constraints, and a growing demand for care services. This fourth annual report on global healthcare IT (HIT) investment priorities leverages insights from 182 healthcare organizations across 43 countries and territories outside the US to detail the prevalence of AI as an organizational priority, its impact on other IT investment areas, and the additional technologies organizations are prioritizing amid market pressures. The report also discusses which technologies are generating the most excitement in the market, what organizations’ plans are for leveraging the cloud, and how they plan to engage consulting firms going forward.
