Introduction to Healthcare Information - Enabling Technologies (Paperback)

Based on HIMSS' highly successful Annual Conference workshop, "Introduction to Healthcare and IT Enabling Technologies: All You Wanted to Know and Were Afraid to Ask," this book is a valuable resource for individuals new to healthcare, healthcare professionals transitioning into the field of information technology, students or anyone wanting a better understanding of the role IT plays within today's healthcare system. The book introduces many enabling technologies currently used within healthcare, including electronic health records, personal health records, medication dispensing devices, bioelectronic equipment and patient identification technologies. In addition, the books contributors--nationally recognized leaders of their organizations' successful IT implementations--explore how external influences, such as the evolving legislative activities in Washington DC, are responsible for the rapid changes facing health IT today. With chapters focused on IT use from bedside to board room, Introduction to Healthcare Information Enabling Technologies examines today's health IT environment from various stakeholder perspectives, including nurses, physicians and the C-Suite--CEO, CFO and CIO.
