Information and Management Systems Society
"Connected for Health shares what Kaiser Permanente has
learned so far in tapping the vast potential of electronic health
records to improve care and expand the frontiers of medical

policy leaders in the United States and around the world."
—Karen Davis, president, The Commonwealth Fund
