SAP White Paper: Health System Executives Seek New Ways to Reduce Costs and Tackle the Patient Experience

A study of 100 healthcare executives identified two issues to be top of mind for health systems in the coming three years: addressing the cost pressures that have resulted from declining reimbursements, and improving the patient experience.
