Healthcare IT Value Model 

Netsmart is proud to be one of the largest and longest-established healthcare IT solution providers, dedicated to moving the industry towards value-based technology adoption. We view healthcare IT as more than just transactions; it's about fostering enduring relationships and mutual innovation for the benefit of our clients' communities. It is part of our mantra, established by our CEO Mike Valentine, that we have “the opportunity and obligation” to serve our clients with solutions that improve care and contribute to the overall success and sustainability of their organization.

In a diverse industry with evolving needs, Netsmart leverages its expertise to address client requirements and industry dynamics, including reimbursement models and regulatory policies, to establish a framework for clients to adopt current success-driven IT capabilities and set the foundation for the future.

The Healthcare IT (HIT) Value Model is a vendor-agnostic common measurement system consisting of seven dimensions, guiding clients in assessing strengths, weaknesses and strategic planning. Each dimension encompasses capabilities with key performance indicators, defining an organization’s ability to use technology and services to achieve specific goals.
