Title: The future of Health IT and the Amazing


1
The future of Health IT and the Amazing Progress
we can expect by 2020
2
1. Creation of specialized units for
fast-tracking healthcare services
3
  • Large-scale hospitals are being converted into
    specialized units, such as the ambulatory
    services units, oncology units and neurology
    units etc. This trend has introduced the need for
    a specialty-specific EHR which exclusively
    covers the specialty based template requirements
    for specialists. Due to the availability of such
    support and ease, providers are able to
    significantly improve the quality of their
    services and therefore they are able to see more
    patients within the same time slot.

2. Ever increasing adoption of the EHR technology
among hospitals and practices
5
  • According to the HealthIT.govs statistics, the
    adoption rate of certified EHRs has risen from a
    percentage of 71.9 in the year 2011 to a
    commendable 96 in the year 2015. Hospitals and
    providers, both, are shifting to the use of a
    certified EHR solution due to the potential
    benefits which come along with it. E-prescriptions
     with an updated knowledgebase, render the
    prescribing process smooth without any
    unnecessary interruptions.

3. Preemptive approach for gene abnormalities
7
  • Eliminating mistakes even before they take place,
    is something which was considered to be
    impossible before. Scientists are now editing
    disease genes present in human embryos, with
    remarkable success rates two-thirds of the
    embryos had their genes removed successfully. For
    families which have been affected by genetic
    diseases throughout generations, such a research
    is a blessing in disguise.

4. Cyber security breaches result in compromised
user data
9
  • Credible health information is quite valuable,
    hence the need for its protection against cyber
    threats. According to Fortinets Q4 2017 Global
    Threat Landscape Report, the healthcare industry
    has seen a massive 82 increase in cyber-attacks.
    This doesnt end here, the amount of malware
    being targeted towards organizations in the
    healthcare sector is also increasing at a steady
    rate of 25. More interesting is the fact that
    about 10 of such attacks are triggered by
    botnets a group of computers controlled through
    a malicious software, with the sole purpose of
    sending out spam.

10
5. Emerging therapies make way for better
treatment plans
11
  • Day in day out, we hear about cutting edge
    research making news with regard to newer and
    better treatment methodologies. Recently,
    Immuno-oncology has drawn focus on the
    immuno-strengthening strategies for cancer
    patients. This treatment approach focuses on
    improving the bodys chances against the disease.
    This therapy is being considered as an
    alternative to chemo, with a steady success rate
    in some patients.

12
6. E-measures automating the future
13
  • Measures are there for regulating the quality of
    healthcare being provided to the patients how
    satisfied do they feel after being checked and
    how well the general is population doing, are
    some of the common measures amongst the list of
    quality measures. Electronic measures are here to
    replace paper based measures for good. Not only
    do they improve quality but streamline workflows,
    through the provision of a thorough comparison
    between the outcomes and the providers
    performance.

7. Wearable technology is facilitating providers
and patients seamlessly
15
  •  In recent years, wearable technology has been
    transcending the potential of existing
    technologies especially in the healthcare sector.
    With applications in various fields of medicine
    such as oncology and neurology, it is proving to
    be fruitful for patients in many ways -
    facilitating them in scheduling appointments with
    providers, tracking their health and much more.

16
8. Artificial Intelligence opens the door to
unexplored avenues
17
  • Artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly
    reduced the time spent by providers in diagnosis
    and treatment of patients, enabling them to
    perform better in the same time frame. Generation
    of potential insights from patient data results
    in better preventive treatment and reduced health
    issues. Other applications of AI include virtual
    nurses, creation of drugs, and monitoring of
    patients in real time during treatment etc.
