Survey: Areas Healthcare Consultants Can Differentiate from the Competition and Win

In a recent Healthcare Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) survey, hospitals and health systems report that when working with consultants hired to run healthcare projects, the top 3 challenges experienced when working with consulting firms are cost overruns and undocumented costs (57%), project delays (48%), and scope creep (33%).

But in a competitive landscape, these challenges represent an opportunity for firms to differentiate their services.
