This study describes a framework for conducting economic analyses for health information technology (HIT) interventions, in the context of three interventions that are currently being implemented in a community-based health network caring for 17,779 Medicaid beneficiaries in Durham County, North Carolina. We show that if the HIT interventions were to redirect only 10% of low-severity emergency room encounters to outpatient care, it will result in $12,523 of monthly savings.
本研究描述了一个针对健康信息技术（HIT）干预措施进行经济分析的框架，该框架基于目前在北卡罗来纳州达勒姆县一个社区卫生网络中实施的三项干预措施，该网络为17,779名医疗补助受益人提供服务。我们表明，如果HIT干预措施仅能将10%的低严重程度急诊室就诊转移到门诊护理，每月将节省12,523美元。
