PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP identifies top seven health industry trends of 2007

E-Health Trend Watch, January 5, 2007

PricewaterhouseCoopers' Health Research Institute released a report titled The Top Seven Health Industry Trends of '07. The report includes findings of a nationwide survey of 1,000 Americans about their perceptions of the U.S. healthcare system. The survey identified differences between what the public and the industry believe to be key issues, including how nearly one-quarter of Americans don't yet believe that having an electronic health record will improve the quality of healthcare. In regard to technology, the report states that the health industry trend will be "time to walk the talk on technology" by developing a "digital backbone to support electronic health records."
