Date:10/10/2008

Honoring excellence in the implementation of electronic health records (EHRs), the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) announces the recipients of the 2008 Davies Awards in the Organizational, Ambulatory and Community Health Organization categories.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) October 10, 2008 -- Honoring excellence in the implementation of electronic health records (EHRs), the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) announces the recipients of the 2008 Davies Awards in the Organizational, Ambulatory and Community Health Organization categories. The 2008 Davies Public Health Award recipients, announced Aug. 27, were Cherokee (NC) Indian Hospital Authority and the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services in Trenton.

Since 1994, the HIMSS Nicholas E. Davies Awards of Excellence Program honors achievement in the implementation and use of health information technology, specifically electronic health records, for healthcare organizations, private practices, public health entities, and community health organizations. The Davies Award is based on an evaluation framework that involves a two-step process, an introspective self-assessment and an on-location site visit. Modeled after the Baldrige Award, this process is a valuable tool for planning and feedback of an EHR implementation. Award recipients often leverage their award status for additional funding and career growth.

Organizational: In 2008, one healthcare organization received the Davies Award in this category.
