ARRA & Quality Center

 Welcome To The ARRA & Healthcare Quality Improvement Center

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and – more specifically – the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH), bring unprecedented opportunities to U.S. healthcare.

The core purpose of ARRA is to improve patient outcomes through the successful implementation of Health Information Technology (HIT); and care providers are being challenged to find a “meaningful use” for technology solutions that support:
 

  • Evidence-based clinical decision making
  • Coordinated interdisciplinary care
  • Clinical benchmarking, reporting and outcomes  analysis
 As facilities face questions about which enhancements should be made to their clinical practice processes and/or technology infrastructures, they’re looking to Elsevier for the most up-to-date answers. Our world-renowned experts make sense of ARRA’s and HITECH’s ongoing developments – as they occur – and help health organizations determine the most effective use of their IT investments by implementing evidence-based clinical decision support with the power of predictive analytics.

No company can equal the depth, breadth and quality of Elsevier’s experience and information. From concise answers to comprehensive data, and from interactive task guidance to real-time data analysis, Elsevier provides the answer to how your organization can meet and maximize the goals of ARRA and HITECH.
