The Benefits Health IT Can Bring to Our Nation –
Fewer Mistakes, Lower Costs, Less Hassle, Better Care

It is estimated that HIT can reduce healthcare costs up to 20% per year – by saving time and reducing duplication and waste. Also estimated that HIT can reduce medical errors by providing complete patient histories, computerized ordering, and electronic reminders. HIT enables true partnerships and collaborations with doctors. Consumers make more informed choices about treatment options and doctors become more involved in their care.

Electronic health records not only save lives:

- They reduce errors such as when a pharmacist can’t read a physician’s handwriting, or when the wrong drug is prescribed by the physician.

- They save time, so that patients don’t have to give their address, insurance information and other basic information over and over again.

- They reduce duplication and waste by showing physicians when tests or treatments may not be necessary.

- They make it easier for consumers to get care from different physicians by making sure that their information follows them throughout their care.

- They give us better information to track public health problems and advance clinical research.

- They protect privacy by making sure that only authorized people see the medical record.
