THE INDUSTRY:

Undergoing dramatic transformation driven by government programs (EMR), cost cutting efforts, telemedicine and telehealth,  the rise of Health/Medical 2.0 companies (PHR), new technologies, increasing use of informatics, use of best practice and evidence based solutions and the need to do more by fewer healthcare professionals.   All while improving the quality of care each patient receives.

At the heart of this transformation are the people who create new tools and processes, design systems to deliver services, and implement them.
 

As a Recruiting Process Outsource company (RPO), i-HIRE is committed to providing our clients with the best talent available.  Facing increased shortages of trained IT professionals requires us to plan for our clients needs AHEAD of time.   One example of that is i-HIRE's efforts helping to “grow” new talent.  In partnership with a leading Southern California University (soon to be announced),  i-Hire is developing a HealthCare IT program to proactively address the current and future shortages of trained & skilled Healthcare IT specialists.
 

The promise of HealthCare IT is in improving the delivery of services and effective treatments at a lower cost without sacrificing the quality of patient care.  

While no one can accurately predict the specifics of tomorrow’s IT world, the need to cut healthcare costs is driving change across the board.   Government initiatives and funding are driving the development and implementation of national EMR records.   New technologies are being developed daily in telemedicine, predictive algorithms, biotechnology, diagnostic tools, genetic engineering, health & fitness games that promise to transform healthcare as we know it.   Consumer demands for health information, medical records and services are driving the creation of new companies and an ecosystem to provide the tools and services that will enable them to live longer, healthier and more productive lives.

i-HIRE will be a vital partner to our clients in the human solution to Healthcare IT needs.
