This overview discusses the critical role of healthcare information technology (HIT) systems in improving patient care. It addresses common issues such as illegible handwriting, data fragmentation, and the challenges of paper records. With insights into the technologies used at FSU College of Medicine, the presentation highlights the major emerging trends, the benefits of adopting such systems, and the barriers to their implementation. Additionally, it covers the essential infrastructure and administrative applications necessary for effective HIT utilization and training for healthcare professionals.

What is wrong with this picture? illegible handwriting, ambiguous and incomplete data, data fragmentation- each lab report is a separate piece of paper which does not allow a physician to visualize the progress of a patient’s conditions. poor availability- studies have shown that as much as 40% of the time the paper record can not be found.
What is wrong with this picture? Insecure in open, unguarded shelving in a clinic In addition, paper records often become bulky with time, which leads to lack of overview. When it comes time to share the record with another clinician, each individual piece of paper has to be hand copied, then mailed. It can cost a clinic up to $35 just to do this. Employee cost of moving all this paper around – estimates it costs $5 just to pull one chart. Space – most medical office space rents for $18-22/sq ft/yr 240 sq ft

Sharing Medical Data • Increase patient safety • Lower Healthcare costs • Allow for coordination of care • Increase communication between providers • Banking analogy
Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT Established by Executive Order 13335 (April 27, 2004) • Responsible for realizing the President’s vision of Health IT: • Widespread adoption of interoperable EHR within 10 years • Medical information follows consumer • Clinicians have complete, computerized patient information • Quality initiatives measure performance and drive quality-based competition • Public health and bioterrorism surveillance are seamlessly integrated into care
Goals • Develop a nationwide health information network (NHIN) • Establish standards for data transfer and storage: • Continuity of care records • Develop Regional Healthcare Information Organizations (RHIOs) • See article: Burton, et al. Using electronic health records to help coordinate care. Milbank Quarterly. V(82);457-81. 2004
Needed for CCR • Universally agreed-on medical vocabulary • Principled and standard formats for laboratory data, medical images, medical record… • Standardization of medical literature formats--structured abstracts • Health care standards -- treatment guidelines • Standards for health data exchange
