Smarter Healthcare: An Era of Opportunity

The opportunity to transform and innovate how patient care is delivered is now within reach. The investment of more than $19 billion in health information technology for our nation's healthcare system will lead to improved patient care, advanced treatment and drug discoveries, cost savings – and the creation of hundreds of thousands of new jobs in health related fields. On March 20, 2009, IBM and the eHealth Initiative convened influential policy makers, healthcare providers, industry executives and influencers to discuss the impact of the new administration’s investments in healthcare modernization.
