The future of health care reform lies in the progress of a health information technology system that can be used nationwide. The potential benefits from the implementation of HIT clearly show that it is an important aspect of making our nation’s health care better. While the country has made great strides in making a nationwide HIT system possible, we still have a long way to go to achieve total medical computerization. Hopefully, as we continue to make improvements in technology, we can find a way to make an affordable HIT system that could be used in hospitals and medical practices nationwide in order to improve our nation’s health care.
