Two steps forward, one step back.

Abstract

Participants at a community health information network in Glens Falls, N.Y., have come face-to-face with obstacles that could have meant the end to this rural health network that the New York Department of Health and the John A. Hartford Foundation helped launch more than two years ago. Instead, John Laliberte, Glens Falls Hospital's director of information systems, and the rest of the IS team are recovering from some setbacks and preparing to increase the CHIN's capabilities.
