The Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC) has posted on its website several successful case studies showing how health IT allows patients, familiar and physician to access health information to improve patient care.

The success stories include how a family practice's patient portal has increased its efficiency, how a physician improved patient engagement with her EHR system and how a rural critical access hospital benefits from an EHR system.

Videos of the success stories are available on the ONC's website.
