Beware of the red tape/bureaucracy. Healthcare is a lucrative industry, there are always those both inside the hospital organizations and their vendors who have a lot at stake with the status quo and will try to protect their lot. I worked for a large hospital system and I eventually left because I got to witness the dedicated, hard-working doctors and nurses on the front line struggling with a lack of resource and decent processes while the higher up administrators and bureacrats got to sit in their nice offices were often out of touch with the reality on the ground... And also, make sure you're pretty read up on the regulation and governance. Good luck!
