Agenda: The Impact of Emerging Technologies on the Electronic Health Record
Ho-Hum! Why Bring That Up?
– Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE)
– Patient Physician e-Communication
– HIPAA Common Barriers A Solution Question and Answer Definitions

I am Frequently Embarrassed to be in
the Healthcare Industry!!

Why Bring That Up? IOM 1999 Study Showed 100,000 Deaths per Year caused by
PREVENTABLE Medical Errors!– Studies Show CPOE Reduces These Errors At Least 55%– Yet, Less Than 5% of Hospitals Have CPOE!
Massachusetts 2003 Study of Physician/Patient e-Communication Potential $200M Annual Savings & Improved Quality of Care!– Over 80% of Patients Want It– Yet, Less Than 20% of Physicians use Email with Patients!
HIPAA Standardizes– Provides Confidentiality, Integrity & Availability of e-PHI– Yet, Healthcare Entities Fight it!– Yet, National Personal Identifier is on HOLD!

Barriers to CPOE
Cultural Resistance and Inertia Re-engineering the Care Process EHR Infrastructure & Lack of Standards High Cost and Extended Implementation The Benefits Do Not Accrue to the
Purchasers Who Use Them!

The GoalEmerging Technology & the EHR!
CPOE HIPAAE-Communications
EHR with National Personal Identifier and Electronic and Content Standards

We are NOT Talking About the Benefits of Emerging Technology– Research and Implementations have
Already Confirmed We are Talking about Achieving
these Emerging Technologies as “Best Practice”
Please Note

A Solution for Achieving Emerging Technologies
Collaboration– A State Emerging Technology Task Force!
• Involve Key Stakeholders • Align Cost Burden of Emerging Technologies with
Financial Benefits to Eliminate Disconnects• Stakeholders Need to Share their Cost/Benefit Expense• Requires Vision, Leadership, and Collaboration Among
ALL Stakeholders– Publicize, Publicize, Publicize
