Technology Implementation & Vendor Strategy

Ohana provides healthcare technology implementation consulting across the full lifecycle — from vendor evaluation and procurement through configuration, integration, testing, and go-live.

Our approach combines healthcare IT implementation consulting, healthcare technology procurement consulting, and healthcare vendor selection consulting into a single, coordinated strategy. We help you define what you actually need, identify and evaluate vendor options against your clinical and operational workflows, and guide you through the selection process so you choose systems that fit your organization — rather than forcing your organization to fit the system.

Once vendors are selected, we manage implementation as part of your larger strategic picture — not just along individual vendor timelines, but coordinated across all moving pieces so that every component supports your organization’s broader goals.

What We Do

Healthcare Technology Procurement Consulting

We help define requirements, develop procurement strategies, and guide organizations through the purchasing process to ensure technology investments align with clinical, operational, and financial goals.

Healthcare Vendor Evaluation Consulting

We build evaluation criteria grounded in your real workflows, lead structured vendor comparisons and demonstrations, and support decision-making with a focus on long-term organizational fit — not vendor relationships.

Healthcare Vendor Implementation Coordination

When multiple vendors are involved (e.g., EHR, data warehouse, and billing system implementations running in parallel), we serve as the single point of coordination. We ensure system configurations align, integrations function properly, timelines stay on track, and each implementation supports the organization’s broader strategy.

Healthcare System Configuration & Deployment

We work alongside vendors — and when appropriate, trusted implementation partners — to ensure systems are configured to meet your clinical, operational, and reporting requirements. Our role is to ensure the build aligns with your workflows and long-term technology roadmap, not just vendor defaults.

Systems Integration

We connect your internal systems with each other and with external sources — including payer data feeds, claims systems, county reporting platforms, and health information exchanges — to create a unified data environment that reduces manual data entry and minimizes errors.

Data Visualization & Analytics

We implement data visualization tools, including deep expertise in Tableau, to transform raw data into actionable dashboards and reports. This enables leadership to make informed decisions about clinical operations, outcomes, and financial performance.

Strategy without execution is just a presentation.

Most technology consultants will tell you what to do. We stay to make sure it actually gets done.

Ohana coordinates every vendor, configuration decision, and integration dependency — across your entire implementation, not just our slice of it. That means when your EHR vendor and your data warehouse vendor aren’t talking to each other, we’re in the room making sure they are. When a go-live timeline slips, we’re the ones holding it together.

We don’t hand off a roadmap and wish you luck. We’re there through go-live — and we build the internal capacity your team needs to sustain what we build together.

 

In Practice: Large Behavioral Health Provider

A major California provider was using separate EHR and CRM systems with limited integration. Multiple consultants and technology vendors were involved, but without coordination, clinical and technical teams risked misalignment.

Ohana HCP acted as strategic coordinator, aligning EHR, CRM, and data warehouse vendors to ensure integration supported both staff workflows and client journeys. The result: a resilient, integrated digital backbone that scales with demand.

In Practice: Community Cancer Support Organization

An organization contracting with managed care plans needed HIPAA-compliant infrastructure from the ground up. Their data was disorganized, with different data points stored in single fields, making billing nearly impossible.

Ohana HCP led CRM reconfiguration and ETL-driven data transformation — eliminating the need for hundreds of hours of manual reentry. Within months, secure infrastructure was connected with a third-party biller, generating revenue from previously uncompensated services.
