Stimulating an HIT Boom: Thanks to the ARRA stimulus package, the Health Information Technology (HIT) sector has experienced rapid job growth during the recession. The American Medical Association predicts the transition from paper charts to EHRs will create as many as 100,000 new jobs.
Benefits of HIT Growth: Not only is HIT growth creating jobs, but patient care and public health are also benefiting from the rapid growth.
EHR Market Size: The $1.2 billion EHR market is expected to expand by 400% by 2013. This translates to $9.3 billion in three years.
Physician Adoption: A recent
study showed that a meager 4% of physicians reported having a fully functional
EHR system while 13% reported having limited access. These numbers are
expected to skyrocket in the near future.
