This document provides recommendations from the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) for the Obama Administration and 111th Congress on enabling healthcare reform through the use of information technology. It calls for a minimum $25 billion investment in health IT to help providers adopt electronic medical records with standards and certification. It also recommends expanding exceptions and safe harbors for EMRs, codifying national health IT leadership and standards bodies, and holding a White House summit on healthcare reform through health IT. The recommendations aim to develop the necessary infrastructure for health IT to transform healthcare.
