“I think it’s going to be challenging for anyone in the healthcare industry, especially as they work toward a budget for their next fiscal year,” Ms. Marshall said, according to the report. “We’re very specific about the role tech is playing in the continued trajectory toward value-based payments. It’s not the sole answer, but it’s really helping.”
In that same vein, Ms. Marshall noted that Cerner and its clients are working to use technology to provide better and less costly care. Techniques include tracking patient outcomes, preventive care and better connecting physicians and patients.
Overall, Ms. Marshall said Cerner is ready to tackle any upcoming alterations the AHCA could have on the healthcare industry. “At the end of the day, there are still going to be hospitals providing care,” Ms. Marshall said, according to the report. “We’re really well positioned to work with any number of changes that could happen.”
