Attend this webinar to examine and explore the term “meaningful use“ and to learn how technologies beyond Electronic Healthcare Records (EHR) can provide even greater advances in improving the quality, efficiency, and safety of health care in the United States.
As the definition of “meaningful use” is being debated by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), our expert panel will share their knowledge on Health Information Technology (HIT), and why additional innovative technologies should be included in this definition to
help hospitals reduce costs and
improve efficiency through technology.
Attend this webinar and you will learn about:
- Innovative technologies that provide a significant and immediate impact on patient quality, efficiency and safety
- “Meaningful use” and why it should include the adoption of communications and workflow technologies
