At the end of this blog post I’ve appended a blowup of the back cover, with an overview blurb and list of chapter titles.

Abstract

Health information technology (HIT) professionals who learn about business process management (BPM) technology are usually impressed. Nonetheless, BPM has been slow to diffuse into healthcare. HIT has technologies corresponding to some BPM suite core components. But process orchestration engines remain rare. Fortunately, there are signs that the HIT market is entering a period of greater need and appreciation for BPM ideas, products, and services. I describe the current state of affairs within the health IT industry and suggest how BPM vendors can engage, educate, and communicate, about BPM’s unique value to healthcare and health IT.

Free Webinar! Enterprise Content Management & Business Process Management: A Healthcare Game Changer

Anyone who reads this blog, or follows me on Twitter at , knows that I’ve consistently sounded a theme for years. Healthcare has numerous workflow and process problems that can be solved with workflow and business process management technology. I’ll sound this theme, yet again, from the bully pulpit of a webinar on Wednesday, November 6 at 2:00 p.m. ET, sponsored by ChartMaxx, the multiple award-winning Electronic Content Management (ECM) solution from Quest Diagnostics.

By the way, if you’ve attended any of my previous webinars on workflow, workflow tech, and healthcare, I’ll be presenting all new slides and interesting twists. An old, but increasingly incorrect stereotype is that Business Process Management is only about workflow automation. But, in also, ECM, which is about content, and BPM’s workflow concerns, increasingly overlap. Think, “Workflow-Powered ECM” or “Content-Centric BPM”, and you’ll be thinking in the right direction.

Anyway, I hope you’ll join me then. And, better yet, before and after via Twitter. As the webinar gets closer I’ll tweet updates, musings, and related links. If you will, as they say in social media, “engage” (even a “Thanks for sharing!”) I’ll be sure to give you a shout out!
