Afterword
            

We had a great meeting!  It was gratifying that so many of you took the time to attend this Summit.  It demonstrated to me just how important eHealth is to Ohio.

Those who attended the Summit heard more than a dozen very interesting and informative presentations from people involved in eHealth projects around Ohio.  We also heard how the national initiative is going and how our efforts should dovetail with them.  Be sure to follow the link to the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONCHIT) for more information.

The materials on this disc and the HPIO website represent just a sampling of the vast amount of information to help us with eHealth in Ohio.

At the close of the Summit we discussed possible next steps.  We at HPIO are developing a proposal for strategic planning grant around ehealth in Ohio.  We are also interested in putting together a leadership team willing to help coordinate ongoing eHealth in Ohio efforts.  Please let us know if you have interest in participating on such a group.  Finally, people expressed interest in establishing a eHealth in Ohio list-serve. 

We here at the Health Policy Institute of Ohio look forward to working with all of you for the future of improved health and health care for all Ohioans.
