  1. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/AbD4dHtR6-Y?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>An electronic record of health-related information on an individual that conforms to nationally recognized interoperability standards and that can be created, managed, and consulted by authorized clinicians and staff across more than one healthcare organizationWithout health care data and informationthere would be no need for health careinformation systems. Health care informationis a valuable benefit in health careorganizations, and it must be managedlike other effects. To manage informationeffectively, the focus has to be on the information collected, which is unique to health care organizations. Understandingthe sources anduses of health care data and information is the key element. These benefits include (1) improvedquality, outcomes, and safety; (2) improvedefficiency, productivity, and costreduction; and (3) improved service andsatisfaction.
  2. Core Fuctions of ehr system includes medical and nursing diagnosis, medication list, lab tests, allergies, demographics, and clinical narratives CPOE- computerized provider usually used to order medications. It manages all types of results such as lab tests electronically. The advance technology allows computerized clinical decision support to be diagnosed. Capabilities of decision support include reminders, alerts, and computer assistant.EHR other functions effected by technology allow electronic communication and connectivity to be more easy. Allowing everyone involved in the patient care to communicate effectively with each other and the patient. The technology includes email, web messaging, and telemedicine. Telehealth- patient support- includes everything from patient education, materials, and home monitoring.Information exchange across boundaries – is the central component of U.S. health care information technology strategy has been to further the adoption of interoperable EHR systems to further the exchange of health information across organizations. A health information exchange (HIE) consists of the technology, standards, and governance that enable the exchange of data between the information systems of various health care stakeholders. There are diverse types of HIEs. A HIE can be dedicated to moving medication-related transactions (new prescription requests, renewals, and refills) between EHRs and pharmacies. A HIE can be used to exchange a patient’s health data between two or more providersA regional health information organization (RHIO) is an organization that providesan HIE to health care stakeholders in a specific region providers, healthplans, and diagnostic centers“significant work has occurred nationally in terms of standards development in recentyears. The Healthcare Information Technology Standards Panel (HITSP), establishedin 2005, has brought together experts from across the health care community—fromconsumers to physicians, nurses, and hospitals; from those who develop health care ITproducts to those who use them; and from the governmental agencies that monitor theU.S. health care system to those organizations that actually write the standards (HITSP,2008). Although widespread interoperability remains a goal, all the right players seemto be working together toward its achievement.” chapter 5
