EHM Overview

In the wake of tremendous growth, the healthcare industry is changing. Through new FDA regulations to reduce medical errors and the President's proposal to develop standards for healthcare data interchange, the forecast for healthcare in 2007 is solid growth and extensive improvement. As the nation's single largest vertical, there is a genuine commitment to provide better patient care and a need for new and innovative technologies to offer viable opportunities to improve efficiencies. More effort must be targeted in the perfection of operational systems which are responsible for the problems with medical safety. Health providers are now realizing the urgency in deploying new solutions to lower costs, reduce medical errors, enhance outcomes, and stimulate efficiency in an industry know for inefficiency.

Understanding how to improve clinical processes, meet industry standards and merge the maze of disparate systems is integral for physicians and healthcare professionals to stay in tune with the growingly complex healthcare industry. With baby boomers turning 65 or older being predicted to be the largest growth segment of the population, there is a demand increase in the overall quality of care. Physicians are caught between the desire for quality care and the desire for cost control. And the cost versus care debate is spawning a vigorous movement to improve the overall quality of health care in the United States, demanding attention in patients' rights, disease management, preventative health care and patient education.

Executive Healthcare Management is the industry's leading source for healthcare professionals and physicians for evaluating and achieving their business goals. By combining unbiased industry news with thought leadership from the most respected executives in healthcare, EHM encourages a platform for strategy and learning.
