Build vs Buy — Healthcare
Weigh SaaS subscriptions against a custom build for Healthcare — see the multi-year total cost of ownership and which path wins.
What this means for Healthcare
- Clinicians spend 1-2 hours on documentation for every hour of patient care; burnout and turnover are accelerating.
- The EHR drives the workflow instead of the workflow driving the EHR; every department has its own workaround.
- Prior authorization and revenue cycle management are still largely manual; days in A/R keep climbing.
Where it pays to act
- Ambient AI scribes that draft clinical notes during the encounter and let physicians close charts on the same day.
- Prior authorization automation that drafts and submits requests with supporting clinical evidence.
