Navigating Health Information Technology (HIT) has become
increasingly important for companies in the LTPAC sector since last year’s
release of the “Roadmap
for Health IT in Long-Term and Post-Acute Care (LTPAC)” identifying five
areas providers should focus on.
The five priority
areas for 2012-2014 included:
1. Care
Coordination
2. Quality
3. Business
Imperative
4. Consumer-Centered
5. Workforce
Acceleration
Aside from the release of the roadmap, Medicare requirements
have also pushed organizations to focus on similar important areas. Leveraging
technology to accomplish higher quality care, underscore accountability and
deliver overall efficiency is of utmost importance.
According to an article by LTPAC HIT, the next step
after publication of the 2012-2014 roadmap was to, “Invest in emerging
technologies, business models and workforce skill sets that support significant
improvements in workflow automation, decision support, HIE, user productivity
and consumer engagement.”
