Report: Health providers must address gaps in health IT work force
iHealthBeat
Gaps in the health IT work force need to be addressed as more hospitals and health care providers adopt electronic health records to meet the federal government's "meaningful use" criteria, according to a new report from Computer Sciences Corp., CMIO reports. In the report, CSC notes that the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT estimates that 50,000 additional health IT workers will be needed over the next five years to install and operate EHR systems. The company said ONC's estimate "represents an almost 50% increase in the size of the current health IT work force."More
