Presentation Agenda
The IOM 2003 Patient Safety Report describes an EMR as encompassing:
– “a longitudinal collection of electronic health information for and about persons
– Immediate electronic access to person- and population-level information by authorized users;
– Provision of knowledge and decision-support systems that enhance the quality, safety, and efficiency of patient care and
– Support for efficient processes for health care delivery.”
What are Electronic Medical Records?
The 1997 IOM report “The Computer-Based Patient Record: An Essential Technology for Health Care” defines an EMR as:
“A patient record system is a type of clinical information system, which is dedicated to collecting, storing, manipulating, and making available clinical information important to the delivery of patient care.
The central focus of such systems is clinical data and not financial or billing information.”
What are Electronic Medical Records?
The American Health Information Management Association defines three essential capabilities of an EMR:
1. To capture data at the point of care,
2. To integrate data from multiple internal and external sources, and
3. To support caregiver decision making.
