Perhaps no other industry is going through more changes in its information technology needs than the healthcare industry. U.S. Government healthcare reform and regulation is driving the need for timely technology adoption to help reduce healthcare delivery costs.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act are giving Medicaid and Medicare providers good reasons to adopt healthcare IT. These acts authorize $36B for incentive payments. Title IV of the Act gives states access to an additional $1.1B of 90 percent federally-matched funds to support administrative costs.
Understanding the nuances of the changing technology requirements and how they will impact the entire healthcare delivery system will require a team with vast knowledge of this industry. At Vision IT, our talented team can help healthcare organizations in many areas, including:
