Evidence-based care says on average this is the best drug for you but if they're 100 people in the room and the best drug only helps 20 what about the other 80 personalized evidence-based care addresses not just the 20 but the other80 and all that sits on a platform have healthcare information technology the IT systems at federal express that deliver your packages to your home are vastly more sophisticated then aroused in hospitals that's crazy you mean we're dealing with real lives in hospitals and health care is an information business to deliver the best health care to you at any given moment I need information I need everything there is to know about you at my fingertips when I needed so I can decide what to do also need decision support saying based on all this information here are some things you need to think about that's what real healthcare information technology should do in the process of care and vast majority meant the nation's hospitals ninety-eight percent are still on paper there right now orders writing notes like it was fifty years ago so there's a huge opportunity in for permit just forgetting the technology that we use to.
