Six common challenges health care executives experience when it comes to data governance and how they can overcome them.
Siloed Data Owners
Many health care executives that are starting off with a data governance program come to find that their data owners are far too removed from the business' operations and corporate activities. Because of this, effectively integrating data owners into the company-wide initiative often becomes an unforeseen challenge.
Another benefit of using an experienced expert or independent facilitator is that their main responsibility is to make sure data governance initiatives are focused on the information that will best help the organization reach their goals. This also ensures that health care organizations are getting the useful information into the hands of executives who can do something with it.
