MEDICAL DEVICE ANALYSIS
The burgeoning hospital and home-based medical-device industry is replete with opportunities—and challenges. There are technical, regulatory, intellectual property and business considerations. In the end, the device needs to work for both the clinician and patient. Bryan Bergeron’s unique combination of skills and experience qualify him to provide far-reaching counsel on medical devices from concept to market.
He is experienced in electronics from high-tech circuitry to complex hardware design. He has a native talent for problem solving that, together with his engineering skills and his medical-apparatus knowledge, leads to functional products that are safe and effective.
HOSPITAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS
Healthcare institutions are already on the fast track to enterprise-wide information technology. And new government initiatives are accelerating the pace. A successful implementation starts with the analysis of existing processes and work habits to determine which technologies might be leveraged to achieve specific goals. It results in improved patient care and reduced costs—sustainable over the long term.
Bryan Bergeron has written extensively on this topic based on his experience"in the trenches." His award-winning book Developing a Data Warehouse for the Healthcare Enterprise details an ongoing project that examines clinical, logistical and fiscal processes, identifies relevant key performance indicators and catalogues reporting systems.
