  • Title: Controlling information technology costs, Part 3.
    Author: Honan T, Ciotti V.
    Journal: Mich Health Hosp; 2002; 38(3):38-9. PubMed ID: 12043537.
    Abstract:
    Health care executives are increasingly frustrated by Information Technology (IT). Although our industry is often accused of underinvesting in technology (hospitals average 2-3 percent of their costs in IT, compared to other industry's 8-10 percent), when IT investments are made, they fail to reflect demonstrable return to the bottom line. Yet the effective deployment of technology is so critical to the success of the organization and can in itself cause the failure of a health care system.
