Companies in all aspects of business are struggling to find the best approach to assess the business value of information technology. The business value of information technology investments is on the minds of the leadership of virtually every healthcare organization today.

The new issue of Frontiers of Health Service Management, "Wired and Wise: Assessing the Return on IT Investments" explores the types of business value IT has generated in other industries, what value it can generate in healthcare, and some of the barriers encountered in achieving that value. Included in this issue is a three-part analysis for identifying and assessing return on investment in IT projects.
