solved. Informatics will be very important. The gathering of diagnosis-related data regarding care regimens, drug and device utilization, extent and impact of each type of provider, cost, and more will help to hopefully improve care. This data will be a great source of research to truly evaluate what is and what isn’t evidenced based medicine. This will facilitate comparative effectiveness studies as well. The data, however, will only be as good as the collection tools, the EHR and health information exchange.
Thoughts?
Thank you!!
