The Electronic Health Record
  • Common acronyms for electronic records for
    patient data
  • EHR electronic health record (across the
    lifespan)
  • CBMR computer based medical record
  • CPR computerized patient record
  • EMR electronic medical record
  • EPR electronic patient record
  • PHR personal health record

5
Functions of the Health Record
  • Document patient care
  • Provide communication among healthcare team
    members
  • Financial and legal record
  • Research and continuous quality improvement
  • Repository of the clinical thought processes
    recording ideas and impressions over the period
    of care
  • Single point at which all clinical data are
    archived for long-term use

6
Attributes of the EHR
  • Enormous capabilities of data storage in a small
    space
  • Accessible from remote sites to multiple people
    at the same time
  • Information retrieval can be almost instantaneous
  • Provide clinical alerts, expert systems, and
    reminders

7
Attributes of the EHR
  • Can link the clinician to protocols
  • Create customized views
  • Improve risk management
  • Provide outcomes assessment
  • More accurate capture of financial charges and
    billing efficiency
  • Increases patient satisfaction

Data rich and information poor?

Rights of Information
  • Right information must be accurate, free from
    error, and meaningful
  • Right person communicated to the person who will
    respond to them
  • Right time crucial to the health of an
    individual, give to the decision-maker within a
    few minutes or hours
  • Right place must be accessible at the point of
    care
  • Right amount decisions can be made faster when
    only the information desired is available

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
  • 19B for HITECH Health Information Technology
    for Economic and Clinical Health

  • Incentive Payment, Meaningful Use
  • Office of the National Coordinator for Health
    Information Technology (ONC)
  • Certification Standards

11
Meaningful Use
  • The effective use of information to support
    better decision-making and more effective care
    processes that improve health outcomes and reduce
    cost growth
  • Data Capture and Sharing
  • Advanced Clinical Processes
  • Improved Outcomes
