Creating Regional and National Electronic Health Records with InterSystems HealthShare

Creating Regional and National Electronic Health Records with InterSystems HealthShareAround the world, healthcare delivery systems are increasingly focused on creating regional and national Electronic Health Records (EHR). The sharing of clinical information increases the accessibility of important health information, can reduce costs through elimination of duplicate tests and prescriptions, and most importantly, improves the quality of care. The availability of such information in emergency situations can literally save lives.

In many cases, these solutions are being approached as ad hoc projects. However, the complexity of healthcare systems makes the development of such sophisticated clinical applications on a custom-programming basis impractical as well as uneconomical. Effective aggregation and sharing of information stored in disparate existing systems requires a product-based approach that incorporates proven components. At the same time, the differing needs of various regions and nations make it essential to use a product that can be easily and rapidly extended to provide additional capabilities.
