Book description

Demonstrating how improvements in information systems can lead to improved patient care, this book explains how to create a holistic Medical Records System as a core component to addressing the issues affecting the U.S. healthcare system. Examining the impact of our aging population on healthcare, it describes the range of systems that support key segments of the industry, including: hospitals, physicians, imaging, and nursing. It considers patient records, the physician's office, home-monitoring networks, the recording and information submitting process, and hospice/nursing home use.
