Wikis are a great tool for health informatics professionals to share information and experiences. The industry is growing and changing very quickly. Wikis can help us stay connected with each other and allow us to learn from each other. Government regulations can be very complex and sometimes require collaboration to fully understand what is expected. Understanding complicated criteria like that included in the Meaningful Use initiative is a necessity for industry professionals. Wikis can help health informaticists discover how others in the industry interpret such requirements and share their own perspective.
