While software integration offers numerous benefits, it also presents several challenges:
1. Interoperability: Ensuring that different software systems can communicate and share data seamlessly is a significant hurdle. 2. Data Privacy: Protecting sensitive health data during integration processes is crucial to maintain patient confidentiality. 3. Cost: The financial investment required for integrating and maintaining multiple software systems can be substantial. 4. Training: Users need to be adequately trained to use the integrated systems effectively, which can be time-consuming and resource-intensive.
