Health IT Stimulus Act: Shaping the future of healthcare through IT will not come easy

“As a member of the Health Information Technology (HIT) policy committee, Charles Kennedy is in an influential position to help shape the future course of an American health care system that is out of control and seriously in need of a fix.
Kennedy, who serves as vice president of Health Information Technology for WellPoint Inc., the country’s largest health plan, was one of 20 people named to the committee that will advise the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology on implementation of a national health information network. The HITECH Act signed into law by President Obama as part of the stimulus package provides almost $20 billion in incentives and other funding for broad deployment of health information technology.”
