Way to Go Live: A Framework for New
IT Implementation
By Joseph
E. Addiego
[May 2005]
Choosing the right Health Information Technology (HIT) system
for your organization can be a daunting task. Given the increasing
complexity of such systems, the expansive legal issues and implications
they raise, and the growing demand for such systems, it is more
important than ever to find a HIT system that suits your organization's
needs - both current and future. Having a clear idea of what
you need and developing a plan for identifying the best fit
for your organization are essential to choosing the right HIT
system. In a recent issue of Healthcare Financial Management
magazine, Davis Wright Tremaine Partner Joe Addiego outlines
a planning process for making these decisions, which he developed
based on lessons learned from litigating numerous IT implementation
disputes. To read the full article, please select the link "Way
to Go Live: a Framework for New IT Implementation."

experience in procuring HIT systems, addressing HIT regulatory
