I've been meaning to do this for awhile, I believe this to be the perfect spot!
The field of Health Information Technology (namely, HIT or Health IT) has been at the forefront, attributable partly to forthcoming healthcare initiatives & the rest due to advances in healthcare delivery & technology. It's growing at a breakneck speed, domestically & internationally. The fields of informatics, analytics, information exchange, etc are the future.
I've somewhat recently transitioned myself towards Health IT, coming from a background in medicine & related experiences. After gaining some more insight into the domain & subject-matter through certifications & internships, I've been exploring opportunities on the EHR-EMR vendor side in terms of clinical content development and/or physician executive/consultant well as other roles, while getting involved in various local/regional/national groups.
I was curious to see if there were others here on 'Prime who are in Health IT and/or the relevant sectors of industry. Any contacts, connections, comments?
Here are some interesting links for those who want to read further:
Some of the notable players that come to mind:
- McKesson
- Epic
- Cerner
- Allscripts-Misys|Eclipsys
- eClinicalWorks
- NextGen
- Greenway
- GE Healthcare - Centricity
- Dell Healthcare
- Vitera Healthcare
- MEDITECH
- Siemens Healthcare
- Athena
- Oracle Healthcare
- Lumeris
- eCareSoft
- The Advisory Board Company
- MaxIT Healthcare - SAIC
* NOTA BENE: please keep this discussion apolitical, meaning on-topic for Health IT opportunities, networking, and industry-relevant discussion! Thanks, in-advance...
