A key element of this framework is a projection of the rates of adoption of HIT in the inpatient setting and in the ambulatory, or outpatient, setting. The monograph should be of interest to healthcare IT professionals, other healthcare executives and researchers, and officials in the government responsible for health policy."--BOOK JACKET.
