As adoption of Electronic Health Record Systems (EHR-Ss) shifts
from early adopters to mainstream, an increasingly large group of
decision makers must assess what they want from EHR-Ss and how to
go about making their choices. The purpose of this book is to
inform that decision. This book explains typical needs of a variety
of stakeholders, describes current and imminent technologies, and
assesses the available evidence regarding issues in implementing
and using EHR-Ss.
Divided into four important sections--Needs, Current State,
Technology, and Going Forward--the book provides the background and
general notions regarding the EHRS and lays out the framework;
delves into the historical review; presents a high-level view of
EHR systems, focused on the needs of different stakeholders in the
health care and the health enterprise; offers practical views of
existing systems and current (and short-term future) issues in
specifying a EHR system and deciding how to approach the
institution of such a system; deals with technology issues, from
front- to back-end; and describes where we are and where we should
be going with EHR systems.
Designed for use by chief information officers, chief medical
informatics officers, medical liaisons to hospital systems, private
practitioners, and business managers at academic and non-academic
hospitals, care management organizations, and practices. The book
could be used in any medical or health informatics course, at any
level (undergrad, fellowship, MBA).
