Identifying, Selecting, and Managing Healthcare Technology Products and Services – #HITsm Chat Topic

We’re excited to share the topic and questions for this week’s #HITsm chat happening Friday, 7/20 at Noon ET (9 AM PT). This week’s chat will be hosted by Healthcare Scene (@HealthcareScene) on the topic of “Identifying, Selecting, and Managing Healthcare Technology Products and Services” and is an extension of last week’s #HITsm chat.

And making a bad decision can be extremely cost-inefficient!

Properly selecting, implementing and using products and services to actually improve healthcare outcomes and reduce costs is not trivial task.
