I crossed over from medical to software because of this issue. The reality is that so much of the software created for us falls short because the depth of knowledge almost always isn't deep enough. It is painfully obvious to us that if the software devs knew medicine as well as we did they wouldn't have made many of the design decisions that they did. I know that is an unsatisfying answer but it's how my colleagues and I feel.

My advice to you is to enter this area only if you or someone involved is capable of getting very deep into the kind of medicine you're writing software for. I don't just mean "they commonly do procedures X and Y and tests A and B a lot".

The reputation of people in medicine not liking tech is wrong. We just don't like using bad tech, which is most of it.

It would help if you gave more targeted thoughts on what specifically you're looking to develop.
