HIT Workshops

How to join the HIT revolution

Healthcare reform will bring many changes and challenges. In addition to meeting the needs of newly insured people eligible for care, behavioral healthcare providers need to leverage limited resources to adopt health information technology (HIT) and new business practices. Health Information Exchanges will require accurate and timely sharing of health information to improve care.

This intense one-day workshop will cover the basics for upgrading an HIT system. You'll also have the opportunity to network with other providers and plan the next steps for improving your business operations and information technology.
