Key opportunities were identified through series of internal assessments, interviews with clinical leadership, and external peer review. The review process, recommended steps to ensure successful implementation, and "lessons learned" will be revealed. Investigate the challenges regarding clinical technology selection and adoption, such as how to best decide among competing requests from key physicians and/or departments and how to maintain momentum in technology planning.
