I am not sure how much an HCR press release would add to the IOM press release already out in this case.<br /><br />In any event, HCR is just a bunch of volunteer bloggers. HCR is sponsored by FIRM - the Foundation for Integrity and Responsibility in Medicine<br />http://www.firmfound.org<br /><br />However, neither Roy M.

It flows logically (though not necessarily in the correct order) from the notion that healthcare IT should be federally regulated. Ideally, healthcare IT should support the meaningful use of evidence-based clinical guidelines.
