Achieving standards alone will take health systems only so far on
the road to the meaningful use of EHRs and health IT. As the health
industry continues to converge in response to regulatory pressures,
health systems will need to transform the way they deliver care, so they
can sustain performance and grow revenue in the future. Success will
hinge on health systems' closer integration with key
constituents—physicians, health insurers, and patients—than in the past.
Meaningful use has cleared a road of opportunity to make this happen.
How aggressively health systems are traveling the road varies.
This presentation, which includes original research from PwC's Health
Research Institute, provides a progress report on health systems'
meaningful use initiatives and focuses on how provider organizations can
inject meaning into these initiatives for patients by engaging and
empowering them to become active participants in their own care.

enable convergence across the health industry
- Describe key components of the ARRA HITECH meaningful use
requirements and how they impact the providers and patients

- Understand how leading health systems are working with other
