“In an online survey of IT executives and information officers at hospitals across the country, half named meeting meaningful-use requirements for electronic health-record systems as their top IT priority for the next two years.
That’s an increase of 8 percentage points from last year, when 42% of respondents in the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society Leadership Survey identified meaningful-user status as their No. 1 goal. Results of the 22nd annual survey, completed by 326 senior IT professionals between Dec. 3, 2010, and Jan. 31, 2011, were released Tuesday at the HIMSS 2011 annual convention in Orlando, Fla.”
