The introduction of information technology in the healthcare and life sciences industries has quickened the healthcare process, thereby reducing costs while efficiently managing huge amounts of patient data. However, the adoption rate of healthcare information technology is still low in many regions due to the high costs incurred for implementation, maintenance, and up-gradation services; poor in-house IT skilled resources; and inadequate IT infrastructure. Outsourcing has emerged as an effective tool to combat these challenges. Outsourcing enables the healthcare and life sciences industries to focus more on their core businesses. Furthermore, it offers various benefits such as reduced operating costs, access to skilled resources, quick deployment, flexibility in the choice of technology and modules, improved cash flow, and risk sharing. The global HCIT outsourcing market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 7.6%, to reach $50.4 billion by 2018 from $35 billion in 2013.
