Technology is helping us greatly in our daily lives. It is debatable whether or not we need technology or not.
However, when we deal with Health IT, technology can actually improve someone’s life or prevent disease and death,using the right information and the right devices.
You’re interested in Health IT, but don’t know where to get proper updates from?
Health IT is a really interesting subject and gains solid traction across social media channels. On Twitter, you find a lot of stray content and some more or less legit accounts, which syndicate content around the subject. However if you want the full brief and stay up-to-date on the topic, you should definitely consider these great Twitter power users and champions, which I have identified and listed for you below in no particular order.
