I\u2019m at the chapter right now where he talks about resources (human and otherwise), processes, and values. These three things are the trifecta that determines what any organization can manage to achieve\u2014or not achieve, as the case may be with disruptive technologies. Here\u2019s where this is relevant to health IT. You can have the most dedicated team who has built out and proven a digital tool that meaningfully improves patient outcomes and that patients embrace. But if the organization surrounding that team does not have the processes and the values that support this team, the effort will, at best, be suboptimal. In this health care podcast, I speak with George Mathew, MD, MBA, FACP, and Chief Medical Officer, Americas, over at DXC Technology. We talk about the why and the how of patient\/provider collaborations when it comes to digital tools. We spend some time on the process prong of Clayton Christensen\u2019s trifecta. From there, there\u2019s news you can use, like what\u2019s going on with the FDA pre-cert program. And then we also get into how digital tools are being inserted into clinical workflows to greater or lesser effect. I can probably also claim that we freewheel our way through some resources and some values advice, but at a minimum, we touch on a number of adjacencies to the process of creating and deploying digital tools effectively, including the why of it all. You can learn more at dxc.technology.  George Mathew, MD, MBA, FACP, is the Chief Medical Officer for the North American health care organization for DXC Technology, the entity created by the merger between Hewlett Packard Enterprise Services and Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC).
