Abstract: Information technology (IT) capabilities are necessary for realizing the full promise of health information technologies in improving health care delivery process. In this study, three key IT capabilities for health care organizations are identified and their relationship with 30-day mortality rate from heart attack examined in a national sample of U.S. hospitals. The findings indicate that the negative relationship of IT capabilities with mortality rate from heart attack is mediated by effort/flexibility putforth by health care workers.
