The SIM
Health IT Council will hold its first meeting today at 1pm at the LOB. Commissioner
Bremby of DSS, which has been given responsibility
for developing an Health IT plan for the state, presented
on the state’s plans at the last SIM steering committee meeting. The
ambitious but thoughtful plan includes infrastructure, risk profiling, a
consent registry, and other critical pieces to create a functional system for
CT.
The SIM workforce council has been placed on hold. Only one
of the three original workforce proposals was included in the final SIM
applications. UConn will no longer be leading that effort.
The Chartis Group has
been chosen as consultants to support the work of the Equity
& Access Committee to develop a system of underservice monitoring. The
Committee will meet with the consultants for the first time tonight at 6pm in
Rocky Hill.
