Health IT Initiatives

Health Information Technology enables healthcare providers to capture standardized data and use it to inform patient care and communicate across a range of clinical settings. Health IT also supports one of the strongest tenets of nursing — educating the patient and family.

ANA has launched and participated in several Health IT initiatives:

Developing standardized nursing languages
Nominating nurse leaders to federal Health IT committees and workgroups
Developing position statements on Health IT initiatives, policy, and standards
Participating in Health IT alliances, including the Alliance for Nursing Informatics, American Medical Informatics Association, and Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society
Developing educational products that support the consumer eHealth campaign of the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology
Coordinating expert panel summit meetings to establish quality measurement models for inclusion in electronic health records
