The computer-based patient record : an essential technology for health care
"In its first edition, this volume presented a blueprint for introducing the computer-based patient record (CPR) nationwide within the next decade. An expert Committee explored the potential of machine-readable CPRs to improve diagnostic and care decisions, provide a database for policy-making, and much more. This revised edition adds new information to the original book. One commentary describes recent developments in the United States, including the creation of a computer-based patient record institute - a strategy recommended in the original volume to promote and facilitate implementation of the CPR. The second commentary highlights developments in Europe. The volume also explores such issues as privacy and confidentiality, costs, the need for training, legal barriers to CPRs, and other key topics."--Jacket
