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).
Throughout history, women have become politically involved at crisis points only to be excluded once normalcy has been achieved again. Movements and parties seeking to assert their territorial autonomy and political independence have commonly employed the ideas of ethnicity and nationalism to consolidate the transition to new regimes. However, these transitions exert differential gender effects, within both dominant and subordinate communities, which have implications for the status of women. This volume focuses on those effects and the interaction of gender with ethnicity and class during periods of transition in a number of divided societies. Each author provides a contemporary case study of a divided society - in Northern Ireland, South Africa, the former Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, Yemen, Lebanon and Malaysia - and discusses the situation of women. They assess whether transition in these societies provides new opportunities for women, or instead, creates new burdens and obstacles for them.
