Electronic health record (EHR) systems can eliminate the need to look through multiple systems and create a consolidated view of a patient's health record. A well-designed EHR system will improve patient care by ensuring healthcare providers always have a single source for the information they need related to a specific patient. Multiple clinical systems can be integrated with an EHR using HL7 or other common protocols, so doctors no longer have to go to a PACS system, an EKG system and multiple other systems to get an overview of patient care. Consolidating information can also simplify and reduce the cost of fulfilling release of information requests.
In addition to choosing an EHR that works well with your other systems, you should also look for one that support healthcare interoperability standards. This will allow you to participate in an health information exchange (HIE), a regional, community or system-wide system for consolidating patient information to improve outcomes. Because of the benefits of EHRs for long-term patient outcomes, 2009 Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) requires the adoption of EHRs as a key component in modernizing healthcare. It's important to work with vendors or consultants to ensure that the EHR system you choose meets the "meaningful use" requirements of this legislation so you can take advantage of reimbursement funds and avoid potential penalties that could be levied in 2014.
