I see three things developing in 2016; one is getting value out of the electronic health records (EHRs). There have been a lot of capital investments and major investments as well as time and effort going into technology over the last several years, and we’re now on the other side of the curve and it’s about getting the value out of these investments and optimizing them.
And, two, I think people are going to be looking beyond the EHRs at other types of technologies to integrate into the health delivery network. There are a lot of mergers and acquisitions happening, but also there are different kinds of affiliations developing that are not necessarily mergers but might be just the formation of clinically integrated networks among different partners.
