A leading, worldwide technology research group has reported that 9 of 10 companies anticipate increasing their adoption of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) in 2009. 37% of respondents state they will replace their on-premises software solutions in favor of SaaS due to ease of deployment and lower total cost of ownership. Certainly, these are compelling reasons to evaluate this increasingly popular software delivery model.

Healthcare historically lags other industries when it comes to technology adoption, so it’s not surprising to find many healthcare companies unaware of the benefits of the SaaS model. Healthcare SaaS is likely to experience considerable growth as executives become more aware of the benefits available to them. While in the early adoption phase we expect that decision makers will be weary of investing in SaaS for mission critical operations, we intend to help our customers make the transition seamless by offering 99.99% uptime guarantee.

Contract modeling and medical claims audits are just two examples of opportunities where healthcare executives can take advantage of the benefits of SaaS. Chart-Tech hosts the applications along with all associated data. Users enjoy secure 24/7 access to their applications.
