Summit Healthcare is a Proud Partner in U.S. National Health IT Week

Braintree, Mass., October 10, 2018 – This October, Summit Healthcare — as a partner in the advancement of health information technology to help improve healthcare —is a Proud Partner in U.S. National Health IT Week.  U.S. National Health IT Week is an awareness week offering all healthcare stakeholders an opportunity to unite under one banner, expressing the benefits that health information technology (IT) brings to U.S. healthcare. “The Value of Health IT.”
Comprehensive health care reform is not possible without system-wide adoption of health information technology, which improves the quality of healthcare delivery, increases patient safety, decreases medical errors, and strengthens the interaction between patients and healthcare providers.
Initiated in 2006 by the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS), National Health IT Week has emerged as a landmark occasion for using health IT as part of the overall solution to improve America’s healthcare as a bipartisan, federally led, market driven initiative.
The Week consists of events across the country, including U.S. National Health IT Week participants —vendors, provider organizations, payers, pharmaceutical/biotech companies, government agencies, industry/professional associations, research foundations, and consumer protection groups— all working together to elevate national attention to the advantages of advancing health IT.
“Summit Healthcare actively encourages and assists in implementing healthcare solutions to promote global interoperability,” said Ted Rossi, CEO, Summit Healthcare. “We see the need for change and look forward to helping provide it!”
