  1. Electronic Health Records for Allied Health Careers Cover goes here when ready Chapter 2 Transitioning to an Electronic Health Record and the Need for Clinical Information Standards

  2. Learning Outcomes • After studying this chapter, you should be able to: • Describe the major strategies for converting paper-based charts to EHR. • List the four ways of entering live patient data into EHR. • Explain how desktop, laptop, and tablet computers differ. • Discuss the advantages of wireless networks in health care. • Explain the major difference between locally hosted and ASP hosting models.

  3. Learning Outcomes • After studying this chapter, you should be able to: • Discuss why the adoption of clinical standards is critical to the successful implementation of electronic health records. • Describe the difference between clinical vocabularies and classification systems. • List four messaging standards used with electronic health records. • Describe the significance of the Medicare Prescription Drug and Modernization Act of 2003 in the adoption of clinical standards.

  6. Converting Existing Records • Conversion strategies: • Total conversion • Incremental conversion • Hybrid conversion

  7. Entering Live Data • Methods: • dictation and transcription • clinical templates • voice recognition • scanning

  8. Computer Requirements • Input Devices • Workstations • desktop computers • laptop computers • tablet computers • personal digital assistants (PDAs) • smart phones

  9. Computer Requirements • Networks • server = “hub” of network; houses data and applications • clients = computers that access the server over the network • wired network vs. wireless network

  10. Hosting Choices • Locally Hosted Model • Application Service Provider Model • Blended or Hybrid Model

  11. The Importance of Clinical Standards • For shared information to be useful, computer systems must be interoperable • No mandatory standards for clinical data exist yet.

  12. Clinical Information Standards • Clinical vocabularies • Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine Clinical Terms (SNOMED-CT) • Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes (LOINC) • U.S. National Library of Medicine Unified Medical Language System (UMLS)

  13. Clinical Information Standards • Classification systems • International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) • International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) • Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) • Healthcare Common Procedures Coding System (HCPCS), Level II

  14. Clinical Information Standards • Messaging Standards • Health Level Seven (HL7) • Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) • Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) • National Council for Prescription Drug Program (NCPDP) • The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 1073 (IEEE1073)

  15. Clinical Information Standards • EHR Content Standards • Electronic Health Record System Functional Model (EHR-S-FM)
