Staffing shortages, spurred partly by COVID-19, are among several challenges health systems face. The pandemic has highlighted how much they rely on people for labor-intensive, manual tasks.
Organizations are at an impasse due to massive burnout and staffing shortages. Health systems need greater flexibility to handle whatever the future holds.
Healthcare organizations can take several steps to operate more efficiently with fewer people and prevent staff burnout.
Test (Drive) Automation
Automating time-consuming, labor-intensive processes, such as EHR, third-party, and enterprise application testing processes, is a bold first step that, fortunately, offers minimal disruption. Typically, EHR testing is a disruptive “all hands on deck” activity involving the IT department and the time and attention of clinical staff.
Test automation allows organizations to leverage their staff’s expertise for more critical tasks, including patient care delivery.
The Eggplant Platform
The Eggplant Functional platform and the Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence (DAI) have unique capabilities that speed up and simplify the testing process.
It can test any technology, including the UI, APIs, and databases, and allows you to improve how you test with its user-based perspective.
Many healthcare organizations have invested in Eggplant’s platform for testing but are not fully utilizing its remarkable capabilities.
A Powerful Engine in a Self-Driving Platform
Much like a car, Eggplant can’t run without a motor.
SureTest is the engine that powers and supercharges the Eggplant platform, enabling it to run like a self-driving car. And Eggplant is the core platform that lets SureTest run its unmatched library of test scripts.
With SureTest, you can operate with fewer people and make the most of Eggplant’s tool to gain extraordinary ROI from your investment.
