The Future of Health Care: Electronic Health Records

Learn about the positive impact of technology in health care.
Innovative health care can save lives and every physician and health care provider has a stake in its success. Through the use of electronic health records (EHRs), the coordination of health care for an individual patient between various practitioner offices is more efficient and accurate, resulting in better overall patient care. With an EHR, a patient's information is always current and coordinated, helping to eliminate medical errors and duplicative paperwork. Dr. Farzad Mostashari (ONC), Dr. Donald Berwick and other health care professionals discuss how EHR technology may help reduce the cost of health care and improve health outcomes -- leading to a healthier future for all Americans.

Here is an idea. We Establish a Federal / State Medical Records System. This way we can know when patients have gotten their tests instead of giving them shots or taking their blood when they don't need to. Data/Record are kept because with that we can be able to pin-point symptoms of diseases. We can also find cures to diseases. Private information is left on private screen and only able to access by Patients approval or Court authority.

The Only Way You can get Your Health Records Project Working is If:
You Use RELATIONAL NOTES / WORDPRESS.
That's the Reason I made it. So P1Gs like you can get Projects Completed.
Do it in Relational Notes and You'll get it Done in Two Years.

As a nurse for over 16 years, and as a patient, I do NOT like the electronic medical records.... it is not good. One doctor put in the computer that I was a homeless drug seeking addict, which I am NOT. And everywhere I go, this follows and flavors how I am treated. And, not all doctors are good. I have had doctors put in my record that I am noncompliant as I argued that I am NOT HOMELESS.

Electronic is good but there are always glitches

[@XXBeguilerXX]

so what happens when this gets hacked? I am wary that the benefits do not outweigh the risks
