That's not actually true. It might be for the bigger companies, but certainly not the smaller ones.

And "risk" in this industry could mean any number of different things. We, as a medium-sized provider, have a BAA with Microsoft for HIPAA. That means that I can utilize information I've gotten from my EMR and build line-of-business apps that bridge the gaps between other systems they may have to work in. In fact, our Microsoft tenant has a much higher level of security than the underlying EMR.

I'm quite literally living what I spoke about above. The reason why I was brought in was because teh current CEO has a very tech-focused mindset, otherwise agencies usually can't afford a full-time software developer. Now, those economics are changing.

Also, I haven't heard of an agency that didn't want custom reports built because they found the default ones unsuitable. So even something like the ability to mainline Power BI reports would be compelling.
