What is wrong with this picture?
•
•
•
•
illegible handwriting,
ambiguous and
incomplete data,
data fragmentation- each lab report is a separate
piece of paper which does not allow a physician to
visualize the progress of a patient’s conditions.
• poor availability- studies have shown that as much
as 40% of the time the paper record can not be
found.

The College of Medicine
What is wrong with this picture?
• Insecure in open, unguarded shelving in a clinic
• In addition, paper records often become bulky with
time, which leads to lack of overview.
• When it comes time to share the record with another
clinician, each individual piece of paper has to be
hand copied, then mailed. It can cost a clinic up to
$35 just to do this.
• Employee cost of moving all this paper around –
estimates it costs $5 just to pull one chart.
• Space – most medical office space rents for $1822/sq ft/yr 240 sq ft

Sad Facts
• Medical errors account for more deaths
than breast cancer, AIDs and motorcycle
accidents.
• US has highest HC costs per capita in
world
• US has worst outcomes of industrialized
nations. (infant mortality, lifespan, etc.)
• Healthcare is 10-15 yrs behind business in
adoption of IT

– Public health and bioterrorism surveillance are seamlessly
integrated into care
FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY
The College of Medicine
Goals
• Develop a nationwide health
information network (NHIN)
• Establish standards for data transfer

Health IT Conclusions
• Financial Support for Health IT on-going concern
• Patient Centric Focus
– Customer Satisfaction
– Patient Safety
• High-speed networks, Intranet and wireless
information systems currently in use, to be
expanded across regions
• Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and
Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) most
important applications
• Interoperability is a must for Health IT
