Description:
Despite pressure from the private sector to market their own custom solutions, the healthcare industry is coming around to the idea of applying the strategies of collaboration, open solutions, and innovation to meet the ever-changing demands for healthcare information to support quality and safety. This book provides a roadmap for improving quality of care using Electronic Health Records (EHR) and interoperable, consumer-centric health information solutions. Through a series of case studies, the authors highlight collaborative and innovative initiatives that are already being used around the world, such as the acclaimed VistA system from Veterans' Health and a variety of other open source EHR systems.
