WHEN
In 2004, President Bush issued an executive order requiring fully operational EHR adoption throughout the healthcare industry by 2014. He also established the Office of the National Health Information Technology Coordinator and charged it with developing a “health information technology infrastructure” that “reduces healthcare costs resulting from inefficiency, medical errors, inappropriate care and incomplete information.” In November 2006, the Medicaid Commission completed its second and final set of recommendations to Congress, recommending that EHRs, including compatibility among different healthcare providers, be required for all Medicaid beneficiaries by 2012. Congress will focus on healthcare information technology during its 2007 legislative session.

Those savings would be seen not just by government agencies, but by private insurers and policyholders, who could benefit directly in the form of lower premiums.
The report should lend urgency to some initiatives that have already begun, like electronic medical records and prescriptions, according to the groups behind its creation.
“It really is remarkable to consider the savings available from options that are, basically, low-hanging fruit,” said Perry Bryant, executive director of West Virginians for Affordable Health Care.
