Potential Savings from Using Information Technology Applications in Health Care in the United States
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 March 2009
Abstract
We reviewed economic evaluations of information technology (IT) applications in health care in the United States. National estimates suggest that fully automating administrative functions would save the system $5 to $8 billion per year. Hospital-specific estimates suggest that individual facilities could save $0.5 to $3 million annually from various clinical IT applications.
