In the United States, recent healthcare legislation (HITECH and PPACA) and stimulus funding (ARRA) fundamentally altered the landscape for implementation of information technology in the healthcare industry. Resulting regulations, combined with near-term financial incentives and medium-term penalties, have essentially determined what must be done and by when.

Provider organizations are left with the complex decisions about HOW BEST to accomplish these critical transitions.

Leadership teams in healthcare provider organizations face a complex array of choices about implementing the Meaningful Use (MU) mandates for electronic health records (EHR) and health information exchange (HIE). These choices go well beyond technology. They have substantial implications for quality of care and the viability of provider organizations.
