Technologies That Enhance Care Delivery

Beyond E-Health Records: Technologies That Enhance Care Delivery

Hospitals are keenly focused on implementing electronic health record (EHR) systems to capture and share patient information. In the U.S., the implementation of certified EHRs that meet “meaningful use” criteria is the highest priority in the coming years. The incentives are substantial and the long-term benefits to care providers and patients are significant. Beyond EHRs, however, there are a number of technologies that also enhance and improve inpatient care.

This article describes examples of these technologies, all of which have been successfully deployed as part of an overall change initiative that included process workflow redesigns. The information is taken from a larger research report, titled “Equipped for Efficiency,” that CSC Emerging Practices created for the California Healthcare Foundation.
