Informatics Corporation of America Takes 2008 Healthcare IT Summit by
Storm, Winning Two of Five Award Categories
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) November 25, 2008 --
Informatics Corporation of America, unmatched in its ability to deliver
a cost-effective, proven solution that leverages complete data across
clinical settings to aid decision-making and improve patient outcomes (www.icainformatics.com),
today announced that it earned two of Healthcare IT Summit’s prestigious
Innovation Awards. Nominated in four of the five categories, ICA was
voted “Solution with the Greatest Market Potential” and “Most Innovative
Presentation.” ICA was also nominated for “Best New Technology” and
“Best Value for the Money/ROI.” The awards are a proven springboard to
increased brand awareness and product credibility in the health care
information technology (IT) market.
“This is an outstanding accomplishment for ICA, but it was no surprise
that our message resonated with so many Summit attendees,” said Gary
Zegiestowsky, CEO of ICA. “In our meetings, it became apparent that many
are challenged in delivering coordinated patient care across clinical
settings. Our solution, with a strong heritage at Vanderbilt
Medical Center, helps drive improved outcomes by enabling clinical
interoperability, so that physicians can access and act on complete
patient information in real time at the point of care. Moreover, for
less than one-fifth the cost of traditional enterprise-wide solutions,
ICA builds on existing technology investments to deliver a complete
electronic health record in six months or less, an incomparable speed to
value.”
