title: A statewide assessment of e-HIT use by all healthcare providers.
abstract: Knowledge of capacity and use of health information technology is essential in developing a secure interoperable statewide electronic health network. The purpose of this research was to conduct a comprehensive state-wide assessment of multiple healthcare providers and translate the data through geospatial mapping into a model to guide the development of RHIOs and HIEs. This research reflects the most comprehensive e-Health adoption survey to date for state healthcare decision makers in the extant literature.
