Research Update: Health IT Survey Focusing on Care Management Trends to be Released Next Month at CMSA Annual Meeting
The second bi-annual Health IT Survey focusing on care management software systems will be published in June in conjunction with the Case Management Society of America (CMSA). The survey results will be available at the TCS exhibit booth during the CMSA conference and online at www.tcshealthcare.com.
In terms of types of medical management software configurations, it looks like most health care organizations who have a system are evenly distributed between in-house developed systems, vendor solutions and some combination of the two. However, it is interesting to note that about one third of the respondents indicated that they did not even have a medical management software system. This is amazing in this “age of technology”.
The survey is co-sponsored by TCS, CMSA and ABQAURP. Stay tuned for more details.
