We would expect an information intensive industry like healthcare to demand considerably more technology investment from every dollar spent to power critical patient care as well as manage organizational decisions. But not at this level and not at this scope. Healthcare organizations pay more for all types of technology from Lawson financial applications, to Microsoft desktop productivity licenses, to Cisco networking equipment, to IBM servers, to EMC storage arrays, and so on. The breadth of scope of this “healthcare premium” indicates that this is not an industry-specific difference for one type of technology unique to healthcare, but rather a general all-technology premium.
