Aspects of the Computer-based Patient Record
The increasing need of patients for better access to good quality care, the great mobility of people in this nation and their quest for care from a variety of health care professionals. The need for faster and lower cost electronic claims reimbursement processes all have made it very clear that it has become essential that throughout this country the current obsolescent paper-based medical records must be replaced as soon as possible by computer-based patient records. In recognition of this high priority need, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) formed the Committee on Improving the patient record. The result was the publication of the computer-based patient record: An essential technology for health care. The support of this IOM project by members of its committee and subcommittees resulted in the preparation of such a large number of worthy supporting papers that it was not possible to include them in the IOM publication. Accordingly, the IOM authorized the editors of this book to publish separately some papers that fit appropriately into this more technology-oriented book.

One of the hottest political issues today concerns ways to improve national healthcare systems without incurring further costs. An extensive study by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in the United States formally reported that computer-based patient records are absolutely necessary to help contain the cost explosion in health care. The information obtained from experts, the studies conducted, and the conclusions that went into the IOM's report have now been collected in Aspects of the Computer-Based Patient Record. A large portion of the volume discusses the state-of-the-art in existing computer-based systems as well as the essential needs which must be addressed by future computer-based patients' records. A final section in the book discusses implementation strategies for changing to the electronic system and practical issues: Who will bear the final cost? How and when will healthcare providers who use the system be trained? This volume contains the concise, valuable information which hospital administrators, hospital systems designers, third-party payer groups, and medical technology providers will need if they hope to successfully transit to hospital systems which use a computer-based patient record.
