(SSA), will discuss the value of health care information technology. His comments included the following:

- Improved health care IT will give the SSA the ability to make claims related decisions faster, dramatic reducing required processing time by up to one-third.
- A key challenge is for us to identify data standards that can be used across multiple different business processes.
