As electronic health records become ever more ubiquitous, physicians appreciate the value they bring to the hospital setting but would like to see them take things a step further, according to a new study.

As hospital administrators, service line leaders and clinicians work tirelessly to stay on the cutting edge of science and medicine, health IT is increasingly providing the solutions to many new challenges.

Without access to high-quality, reliable data, artificial intelligence will not fulfill its promise to help shape the future of public health, community health and healthcare delivery, according to a new report by JASON.

Healthcare providers are prioritizing value-based payment models in 2018 IT budgets and data analytics is the category most likely to see an increase in spending, according to a survey from healthcare advisory firm Damo Consulting.
