IOM (Institute of Medicine) Urges Creation of a “NeuralNetwork” for HHS (Health and Human Services)
Colleagues,

Colleagues,
As reported in Government Health IT...Creation of a “neural network” within the sprawling Health and Human Services Department would help the agency meet the country’s most pressing public health challenges, an independent study group said in a new report.
The Institute’s report, "HHS in the 21st Century: Charting a New Course for a Healthier America," identified a number of factors that undermined the effectiveness of HHS, including:
- “divergence in the missions and goals of the department’s agencies,
- limited flexibility in spending,
- impending workforce shortages,
- difficulty in retaining skilled professionals,
- and challenges in effectively partnering with the private sector.”
The information technology infrastructure envisioned by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies would be akin to private-sector executive information systems that capture and integrate data across enterprises.
