Healthcare IT News Launches Women in Health IT Section
The Women in Health IT section provides stories of women who “broke the glass ceiling” in health IT and insights they learned along the way. Despite accounting for nearly half of the U.S. workforce, women account for only 25% of senior health IT positions worldwide. The Women in health IT section is dedicated to changing this by offering women lessons learned, resources and networking opportunities where women thought-leaders can share actionable insights into how they tackle the critical issues facing women in health IT and the importance of mentorship in one’s career trajectory.
“Women health IT professionals are over 50 percent of our Healthcare IT News’ readers, and we recognized that we need a place for women to access content instrumental for their careers and to celebrate women in health IT who have made tremendous advancements in transforming health and healthcare,” said Tom Sullivan, Editor-in-Chief for Healthcare IT News.
