What do you do if physicians are resistant to collaborating with entrepreneurs in the healthcare industry?
I remember attending a physician training class at another hospital system. I was asked to go because that health system "did it right" in the view the technology vendor. The class went perfectly. Coffee, donuts, intros, explanations, demonstrations, exercises and plenty of breaks. No button went unexplained or untouched. At the end of the long day, one ED doc said, "I still don't know how all this "stuff" helps me care for the patient. If I don't know that, it's all a waste of time." That hit home. It's not about the clicks. It's about the care. Workflows not just work. Physicians don't view training as a waste of time. They just hate training that wastes their time.

How can IT portfolio management and rationalization help eliminate waste and optimize IT investments?
Utilizing IT portfolio management is a great strategy to eliminate "Shadow IT". Shadow IT occurs when users "find" solutions within their budget limits without IT involvement. Users naively believe IT solutions are an "All you have to do..." proposition. By circumventing IT, they fail to take into account the costs of implementation, upgrades, support, training, administration, integration and redundancy as well as security risks. Failure to control Shadow IT is the greatest obstacle to IT portfolio management success.
