I recently participated as the CIO reviewer on a HIMSS Analytics Stage 7 validation. The long travel to the West Coast aside, I was happy to contribute my time and expertise to be exposed to an advanced organization and to meet a wonderful group of leaders. The review team also included a chief medical information officer and the HIMSS Analytics regional director for North America.
As of the 3rd quarter this year, only 4.6 percent of hospitals have achieved Stage 7 while 30.5 percent have achieved Stage 6. Just over a third of hospitals are currently at Stage 5.
All three hospitals I’ve served as CIO have achieved Stage 6. Getting from Stage 6 to 7 is a significant leap. There is a greater focus on analytics and using the data from the electronic health record to improve patient outcomes.
From the HIMSS Analytics website, here is how Stage 7 is described:

The big HIMSS 2016 annual conference has come and gone, but if you were worried you may have missed some of the digital health news, trends, or memorable quotes that surfaced at the event, MobiHealthNews has you covered.
The roundup below includes all of MobiHealthNews' coverage of HIMSS 2016 along with a few links out to our sister site Healthcare IT News and others reporting from the show.
FHIR in action: FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) was one of the most-discussed topics at the conference, but it was often discussed in the abstract. In one session, hosted by Margeret Dittloff, a registered dietician and product manager at the CBORD group and Eric Haas, a consultant at Health eData, gave a deep dive into one particular use case: nutrition.
At the beginning of the year, Dr. [John] Halamka [CIO at Beth Isreal Deaconess Medical Center] put his top IT predictions for the year out there,” Dittloff said. “And one of those was that innovation would come from empowered clinicians and it would be in the form of embedded apps that would leverage the EHR data that we have in our systems and not necessarily be bound by those systems. And we think he’s right, and it’s the emergence of the FHIR standard that’s making that possible for us.”
