Missouri HIT group to make recommendations to the governor

A group looking for ways to make better use of technology in health care says it will make recommendations to the governor by Labor Day, but insists that its work is far from over.

The Healthcare Information Technology Task Force, which met Thursday, is supposed to deliver a report by Sept. 1. But state health director Julie Eckstein, task force chairwoman, said members will continue working in coming months to develop more concrete ideas about the direction they think the state should go.
