The purpose of this book is to inform decision-making. 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. 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. Topics fully covered include: Clinical Research Needs. Patients' Needs. The EHR-S in Population Health. Scope and Sites of Electronic Health Record Systems. Patient Safety, Quality of Care, and Computer Provider Order Entry. Public Policy Issues for CPRs, EHR-Ss, and the NHIN. "Online, On-Demand, Worldwide": The Department of Defense EHR. The Global Perspective. Databases in Healthcare. Standards, Standards, Standards. Privacy and Security. Computer-Based Documentation: Past, Present and Future. Health Text Analysis. Digital Imaging.
