Abstract
The adoption of healthcare information technology (HIT) has been advocated by various groups as critical for addressing the growing crisis in the US healthcare industry. This study aims to understand differences in patient outcomes between healthcare providers that do and that do not adopt HIT. This is accomplished by examining the relationships between the adoption of HIT in US acute care hospitals and two risk-adjusted patient outcomes: patient safety and quality. The new contribution of the study lies in the fact that it uses nationally representative data and it incorporates a large number of technologies.
