Introduction
❖Hello, welcome to this
presentation about how health
informatics and technology are
changing Health Care.
❖The presentation will consider
and defend the nature and
position of healthcare
informatics and technology
advancement in healthcare.
❖It also discusses the currently
emerging healthcare information
technology system, which is
evolving healthcare informatics
and its formulation to highquality and cost-effective
healthcare delivery systems.
Health Informatics and Technology are Changing Health Care
❑Health informatics is the interconnection of information systems,
technology, and the design and delivery of healthcare services, and it is
becoming increasingly important.
❑A plethora of data is becoming accessible as new medical technologies are
introduced, assisting practitioners in providing high-quality patient care.
❑The ability to exploit data, create successful information technology
systems, and share exciting and informative inventions and access to
information all over institutions are critical skills for health informatics
specialists to possess.
❑Progress in digital health technologies, including machine learning, virtual
reality/augmented reality, 3D printing, artificial intelligence, and
nanotechnology, is forming a universal health care landscape in front of our
very eyes (Hassan, 2019).
❑We must become acquainted with the most current revelations to regulate
technology, rather than the other way round. Healthcare professionals must
adopt healthcare delivery innovations if they are to remain viable shortly.
❑The future of healthcare is dependent on collaborating with technological
advances.
Health Informatics and Technology are Changing Health Care
• Moreover, in healthcare and medicine, digital technology can

•
•
•
potentially advance untenable healthcare systems into efficient
alternatives, stabilize the association among patients and medical
professionals, offer additional lower-priced, quicker, and more efficient
results for illnesses.
Technology solutions can fight the war against Ebola, AIDS,
and cancer on our behalf and undoubtedly lead to healthier people
living in healthier environments.
Several factors influence and will continue to influence the future of
health care, including health informatics and technological
advancements.
There are currently emerging healthcare technology systems that can
significantly transform the healthcare industry, which is why this is
necessary.
From the next slide we will discuss one current emerging healthcare
technology system, referred to as Electronic Health Records (EHRs).
Electronic Health
Records (EHRs)
➢
EHR is a design-build of client and
populace health information
electronically stored and accessible in
an electronic format
➢ Is a critical component of boosting care
performance
Electronic Health Records (EHRs)
• Store reliable information and
acquire the condition of a patient
over time
• It can minimize the risk of
Information replication as there is
only one configurable document
• It can also lower the risk of
documentation being lost and is
more cost-effective
Goals of Electronic Health Records (EHRs)
✓To ascertain whether an EHR implementation was effective, it is
essential to establish concrete and achievable goals and objectives.
There are instances in these guidelines that can help with the
advancement of goals and objectives. Moreover, they highlight
several aspects on which a practice can base its aims and outcomes
(Nagykaldi et al., 2018). The constructive utilization of Electronic
Health Records has established several primary goals and objectives.
✓Developing a standard for obtaining data such as patient
demographics, medical commands, and outcomes in an electronic
format.
✓Improving the adherence to treatment at the point of delivery;
✓Treatment value, security, and efficacy can all be improved by using
clinical decision-making and patient self-management techniques,
among other approaches.
Goals of Electronic Health Records (EHRs)
✓Prescription phone calls from pharmacies should be reduced, as well.
Minimize the need for paper prescription drugs and hand-written
medications by utilizing the e-prescribing tool in the EMR. Drug
interactions should be avoided by utilizing the drug interaction having
checked features of the HER (Nagykaldi et al., 2018).
✓Decrease the delivery time for transcriptions and the costs associated
with transcription. Completely eradicate the need for transcription
services by utilizing clinical mapping inside the EHR.
✓Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) should receive better
quality care. Antiplatelet therapy should be monitored using the
EHR's government healthcare monitoring.
✓Reduce the number of times patients spend in the hospital waiting
room. Persuade your patients to keep updating their personal and
employment contracts on the computers in the waiting room.
Data Supporting Electronic Health Records
• It is anticipated that the electronic health record will increase the
performance and effectiveness of healthcare services. In an attempt
to optimize medical decision-making and information exchange
among healthcare professionals, numerous innovative features and
functions have been initiated.
• There is, nevertheless, only constrained evidence to suggest that all
these new functionalities are beneficial in their current form.
• There was increased gratification with a few of the decision-making
support relative abundances for writing prescriptions. A study was
carried out to investigate how well the electronic health record
system supports health care providers in making routine diagnostic
procedures.
• In addition, an automatic showcase of medication-interaction
notifications and medication-allergy cautions is provided.
Data Supporting Electronic Health Records
• On the other hand, healthcare professionals were less pleased with the
other aspects of drug writing prescriptions, such as receiving an
outline of continuing drug therapy (Barrett & Stephens, 2017).
• Clinicians responded to the survey by requesting advancements in
such electronic health record features and functionality, such as
medication management, medical workflow assistance, organizing,
and more comprehensive overviews.
• In addition, it appears that more attention should be paid to system
stability, the number of login credentials allowed, dependability, and
improved guidelines on the characteristics of the electronic health
record that are currently available. It is necessary to make significant
improvements to the current electronic health record systems to
increase their usefulness and user satisfaction.
Healthcare Setting (including education) for Electronic Health
Records
➢Electronic health records (EHRs) have become extensively
used in both outpatient and inpatient settings over the previous
century. This is true for both hospital and community settings.
In addition to the electronic patient "chart," E...
