title: IDS technology management strategies.
abstract: The formation of integrated delivery systems has created new challenges for healthcare financial managers. Among these challenges is the need to respond to cost-cutting pressures related to technology acquisition, financing, and management. A well-developed technology management strategy can reduce technology costs and risks, free up capital for other strategic uses, and maintain the system's ability to adapt to change.
