The Center for Children and Families at the Georgetown Health Policy Institute has just released a series of issue briefs on “Strengthening Medicaid.” I authored one of these papers, “Health Information Technology: Innovative Applications for Medicaid,” which discusses strategies that states can use to improve the quality and efficiency of Medicaid programs. The paper addresses how HIT relates to health disparities, health literacy, and the digital divide.

To see more about these issues, see the robust Ix discussion on the patient-centered health information technology (PCHIT) blog.
