Meaningful Use

Given how rapidly HIT has evolved over the last decade, HIT references greater than 5 years old need to have a relevant historical context or clear justification for their use. Every assertion that you make needs to have a clear source and be supported by references. EVERY factual statement Must be referenced, individually, from a credible and verifiable source…

No Abstract or Cover Page Needed…
