The mission of the CHIME “Digital Health Most Wired” program is to encourage optimal use of information technology to improve patient safety and outcomes. The program conducts an annual survey to identify, recognize, and certify the adoption, implementation, and use of information technology by healthcare provider organizations. Organizations that earn the highest level among “Most Wired” health systems leverage technologies in innovative ways and encourage deep adoption.
