“We all say we’ll clean it up later… until ‘later’ becomes crisis mode.”
— Chris Petillo
In healthcare IT, every application tells a story. But without governance? That story turns to chaos.
🔎In this RHYNOshort, Chris Petillo calls out a quiet, costly IT crisis: legacy clutter.
From duplicate applications to servers that haven’t been touched in years, organizations (especially in healthcare) are spending millions just to maintain outdated infrastructure -- out of fear, familiarity, or plain forgetfulness.
The worst part? It doesn’t feel like a crisis… until it is.
🦏 Rhyno Recharge - 🔑Key Takeaways:
Unused servers still consume energy, space, and budget
Redundant document systems slow down workflows and decision-making
Legacy tech hides operational risk under layers of "just in case"
Rationalization is tough — but essential
Cleanup won’t add new features, but it will prevent future disaster
“It’s the hardest thing to prioritize — because it doesn’t bring new functionality. But if you don’t clean it up, eventually it breaks everything.”
