Antw: Call For Participation in HIT Definitions Work Groups

2007-11-08 Thread Gerard Freriks
Dear all,

It is clear to me.
Each patient, each patient group,
each healthcare provider, each group of healthcare providers,
will have its own good reasons to organise and do yhings the way they  
want.

There is never a one size-fits-all.
EHR, EMD systems now and in the future can not dictate what people  
have or want to document in the record.
And all have to be very flexible t0 adapt to new situations.

Next generation EHR systems must be facilitators of these ever  
shifting requirements, cultures and opinions.

So I encourage every group to discuss and define what they need now,
as long as any other group can do the same, now and tomorrow and  
define things in an other way.

Many roads will lead to Rome.
And I do not know which one is the best.
All this does not matter when EHR-systems and standards they are based  
on support this variety of demands and opinion
and stay interoperable at the same time.

Many will not be surprised to learn that I will advocate the  
deployment of the European EHR standard and the OpenEHR implementable  
specification.
Systems that use this implementable specification provide healthcare  
providers with the next generation EHR systems that know how to take  
care of all these local demands at any point in time.
Now and in the future.

Gerard

I agree with that concern.  I will be even more concerned if the
definitions are different - particularly the use of EMR.  But what's one
more?
