The Computer-Based Patient Record: An Essential Technology for Health Care, Revised EditionNational Academies Press, 1997 M10 14 - 256 pages Most industries have plunged into data automation, but health care organizations have lagged in moving patients' medical records from paper to computers.

One section describes recent developments, including the creation of a computer-based patient record institute. An international chapter highlights what is new in this still-emerging technology.

The volume also explores such issues as privacy and confidentiality, costs, the need for training, legal barriers to CPRs, and other key topics. |
