The Computer-Based Patient Record
Most industries have plunged into data automation, but health care organizations have lagged in moving patients' medical records from paper to computers. In its first edition, this book presented a blueprint for introducing the computer-based patient record (CPR). The revised edition adds new information to the original book. One section describes recent developments, including the creation of a computer-based patient record institute. An international chapter highlights what is new in this still-emerging technology. An expert committee explores the potential of machine-readable CPRs to improve diagnostic and care decisions, provide a database for policymaking, and much more, addressing these key questions: Who uses patient records? What technology is available and what further research is necessary to meet users' needs? What should government, medical organizations, and others do to make the transition to CPRs? The volume also explores such issues as privacy and confidentiality, costs, the need for training, legal barriers to CPRs, and other key topics.
The Government response to the Health Committee report on the electronic patient record
In England, implementing Electronic patient record (EPR) systems is one of the main aims of the 10-year National Programme for Information Technology (NPfIT). The main plank of the NPfIT programme is the NHS Care Records Service (NCRS) which will create two separate EPR systems: a national Summary Care Record (SCR), containing basic information, and local Detailed Care Records (DCRs), containing more comprehensive clinical information. NCRS will also include a Secondary Uses Service (SUS) which will provide access to aggregated data for management, research and other 'secondary' purposes. This report sets out the Government's reply to the Committee's report (HCP 422-I, session 2006-07, ISBN 9780215036124), published in September 2007, which examined the potential of electronic patient records to improve healthcare services and patient safety.
Aspects of the Computer-based Patient Record
The increasing need of patients for better access to good quality care, the great mobility of people in this nation and their quest for care from a variety of health care professionals. The need for faster and lower cost electronic claims reimbursement processes all have made it very clear that it has become essential that throughout this country the current obsolescent paper-based medical records must be replaced as soon as possible by computer-based patient records. In recognition of this high priority need, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) formed the Committee on Improving the patient record. The result was the publication of the computer-based patient record: An essential technology for health care. The support of this IOM project by members of its committee and subcommittees resulted in the preparation of such a large number of worthy supporting papers that it was not possible to include them in the IOM publication. Accordingly, the IOM authorized the editors of this book to publish separately some papers that fit appropriately into this more technology-oriented book.
The Computer-based Patient Record
Produced by the Institute of Medicine, this volume presents a blueprint for introducing the computer-based patient record (CPR) nationwide within the next decade. An expert panel explores the potential of the machine-readable CPR to improve diagnostic and care decisions and provide a database for po
For the Record
When you visit the doctor, information about you may be recorded in an office computer. Your tests may be sent to a laboratory or consulting physician. Relevant information may be transmitted to your health insurer or pharmacy. Your data may be collected by the state government or by an organization that accredits health care or studies medical costs. By making information more readily available to those who need it, greater use of computerized health information can help improve the quality of health care and reduce its costs. Yet health care organizations must find ways to ensure that electronic health information is not improperly divulged. Patient privacy has been an issue since the oath...
