The report analyzes the changing dynamics of the healthcare provider digital services landscape. As a recognized Leader in the Everest Group report, NTT DATA was recognized for the company’s ability to deliver services successfully and the impact it has created in the market.

“Healthcare providers are finding it hard to navigate the pandemic due to significant technical debt and dated legacy systems. They are balancing their cost take-out initiatives with investments in digital transformation to stay financially afloat and prepare for operations in a post-pandemic landscape,” notes Chunky Satija, Practice Director, Everest Group. “While the immediate focus has shifted to virtual care, healthcare providers are also investing in improving patient and clinician experience. In this context, NTT DATA has emerged as a Leader on Everest Group’s Healthcare Provider Digital Services PEAK Matrix Assessment® 2020 on the back of its robust Nucleus for Healthcare digital health platform solution, which caters to an extensive range of provider requirements, incorporates best-in-class solutions from its partner network, and helps accelerate its customers’ digital transformation journeys."
