Abstract
In this chapter, the authors track health information technology by examining the factors affecting health information technology (IT) expenditure. The authors employed hospital-and patient-level data of the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) from 2000 to 2006. The generalized linear model (GLM) was employed with log link and normal distribution and controlled for clustering error. The authors found that not-for-profit and government hospitals, teaching hospitals, competition, and health IT expenditure of neighborhood hospitals were positively associated with health IT expenditure. However, rural hospitals were negatively associated with health IT expenditure. Moreover, the authors found that mean annual health IT expenditure was approximately $7.4 million from 2000-2006. However, it jumped 204% to $15.1 million from 2008-2014.
