Limited funding and lack of reimbursement from payers are the top hurdles to patient engagement technologies, analytics and precision medicine, according to a survey of chief information officers.

Healthcare providers plan to ramp up investments in telemedicine, patient portals and data aggregation capabilities but continue to struggle with how to fund these investments, a survey report from KLAS Research and the Center for Connected Medicine (CCM) found.

The “Top of Mind for Top Health Systems 2019” survey from KLAS Research and CCM surveyed 70 healthcare executives, including CIOs and IT directors, from 65 health systems.
