The executive order would affect doctors and hospitals serving the Medicare population of elderly Americans and people served by any other federally financed service.
It would require those health providers to join with the government to standardize the requirements for information technology systems coming into their facilities; set standards for care of specific health problems; and develop uniform methods of measuring and reporting the outcomes of treatments.
