Promoting Patient Safety Through Effective Health Information Technology Risk Management
This report summarizes a project conducted by RAND Health, ECRI Institute, the University of Texas, and Baylor College of Medicine. The project facilitated the identification of safety risks associated with health information technology (IT) by 11 organizations (hospitals and ambulatory practices) and the implementation of risk management activities in each organization. The project also evaluated the implementation effort through site visits and phone interviews. This report summarizes the implementation process, six case studies, and recurring themes from the case studies that offer lessons for risk management of heaIth IT in hospitals and ambulatory practices.

Change Medical Liability Laws to Reduce the Frequency and Severity of Claims
The RAND Corporation's COMPARE initiative provides information and tools to help policymakers, the media, and others understand, design, and evaluate health care policies. The COMPARE Web site presents a range of policy options that allows the user to explore the effects of commonly proposed health care reforms. This document explores how changing medical liability laws to reduce the frequency and severity of claims would affect health system performance along nine dimensions. Changing medical liability laws plausibly might reduce waste. But such changes would have only a minimal direct effect on overall spending; evidence of effects on health and capacity is mixed. There is no evidence about the effects of changing liability laws on consumer financial risk, reliability of care, patient experience, or coverage. There is no broad legal impediment to changing medical liability laws: Such changes have already been implemented by many state legislatures.

In case studies of four U.S. communities, researchers collected information on the dynamics of local patient safety activities and on adoption of safe practices by hospitals.
