Intermountain named to "Elite 100" List

Salt Lake City – Intermountain Healthcare announced that it has been named to the 2014 InformationWeek Elite 100 rankings, the only Utah company to make this year’s list of top business technology innovators in the U.S. 

Named to the list for the third straight year, Intermountain was honored in 2014 for the development of a new research system that streamlines the clinical study registration process, optimizes document and data management processes for clinical trials, and improves the study-tracking process. Developed jointly at the Intermountain Homer Warner Center for Informatics and the Intermountain Medical Center Heart Institute, it is expected to reduce clinical trial overhead time by 75 percent, reducing costs and allowing a great increase in the number of clinical studies that can be conducted.

“The digital business movement is a force CIOs can't ignore,” said InformationWeek Editor In Chief Rob Preston. Just as Amazon.com transformed the retail industry, Netflix changed the face of movie distribution, and Orbitz and others reinvented travel planning, new digital companies, technologies, and business models will shake up a range of other industries, from healthcare to manufacturing to higher education. The 2014 InformationWeek Elite 100 highlights companies that are leading this digital business revolution, redefining business models and reshaping industries.”
 
This is InformationWeek’s 26th year identifying and honoring the nation's most innovative users of information technology. Unique among rankings, the InformationWeek Elite 100 spotlights the power of business technology innovation.
