“Simplify everything, so we can do anything.”
The theme for SAP SAPPHIRE NOW 2014 in one word: simple, a theme that is more relevant for healthcare today than ever before. Healthcare providers today are overwhelmed by data and they need simple tools to integrate systems and retrieve actionable insights from this data.
At SAPPHIRE I had the pleasure of interviewing a physician, a geneticist, and healthcare IT professionals on how they are leveraging SAP technology. Each of these conversations revolved around the complexity of healthcare and how SAP is helping them beat this complexity.
