Modern Healthcare (complimentary online registration): Health Resources and Services Administration Administrator Make Wakefield on Monday announced that her agency and the U.S. Labor Department have signed an agreement to use existing resources at community colleges and technical colleges (PDF) to support the training of health information technology professionals at rural hospitals and clinics.
According to the agreement, HRSA and the Labor Department’s Employment and Training Administration—as well as HHS’ Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology—will use their respective resources to promote a health IT workforce that is available in sufficient numbers and skills to support rural health IT needs, and that is also actively employed supporting those rural health IT needs.
