8. A major medical provider will embrace the public cloud
The medical field has started to dabble in the cloud, initiating pilot programs and incor-
porating one-off implementations for uses such as billing engines and back-end sys-
tems for insurance. But overall, this industry has been slower than others to embrace the
cloud. That will change – incrementally – in 2019. We predict one large medical provider
will set the pace with an announcement calling for a rollout of cloud technology across
its enterprise. This will start discussions in boardrooms across the U.S. about exploring
the feasibility of following suit.
