The economics of IT & hospital performance

A population study reveals challenges and opportunities


Hospital executives are left to wonder: Will an investment in healthcare IT really pay off? How sizable an investment is required and how long will it take to realize a return?

To explore these questions, PricewaterhouseCoopers studied US hospitals by using econometric techniques to investigate the relationship between IT adoption and organizational performance in hospitals.

The report, which is intended for an executive-level audience, highlights PricewaterhouseCoopers' study design, results, and conclusions.
