A significant part of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act was the 25 billion invested in health information technology (IT) to improve quality, safety, efficiency in health care while also reducing health disparities.

Now, research from the University of Missouri shows increases in IT sophistication can lead to potential improvements in health care quality measures.
