Thomas Isaac, M.D., instructor of medicine in the Division of General Medicine and Primary Care at BIDMC and a project manager at the Center for Health Care Quality Improvement and Safety at Dana-Farber, recently coauthored a study confirming that physicians are overriding the vast majority of drug alerts within clinical decision support systems. What does this mean in terms of the value of having such alerting programs built into e-prescribing and EMR systems to begin with? Healthcare Informatics Contributing Editor Mark Hagland interviewed Thomas Isaac recently regarding his and Weingart's findings from that study. http://www.healthcare-informatics.com/thomas_isaac
It's no surprise that the recently passed Economic Recovery Package contains billions for hospitals and physicians to invest in healthcare IT. But only by digging into the legislation-specifically the HITECH Act, part of the massive American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009-can those responsible for getting that money understand what will be required of them, and when. Healthcare Informatics Editor-in-Chief Anthony Guerra recently talked with Steven Fox and Edward Shay, attorneys and partners at Post and Schell, to better understand the substance of the act. http://www.healthcare-informatics.com/fox_shay
Donald Wegmiller, a well-known former Minneapolis health system CEO and consultant, and currently the chairman of C-Suite Resources, spoke recently with Contributing Editor Mark Hagland regarding the findings of a report, “Leading Healthcare CEOs Sound Off on the Financial Crisis.” Published last year, the report provides a range of insights into what senior executives are thinking, planning, and doing to strategize during this downturn.
