Intro into CIS & EHR
The Clinical Information System (CIS) and Electronic Health Record (EHR) are key components to giving quality care to clients. It allows health care professionals to come together and deliver care, and without the organization of such software, information could possibly get lost in translation.
Clinical Information Systems
Definition of CIS Computer-based system designed to
compile & store patient health records Provides centralized repository
of information based technology applications
Provides historical data of patient health decisions & treatment plans
Allows navigation and integration of information from different entities (billing, compliance,wellness activities)
Encodes knowledge to drive clinical decision making process
Captures clinical data to support more efficient & effective decision making that is evidenced based
Provides for interdisciplinary exchange of information to streamline workflow
Benefits of CIS
Easy access to Patient Data enhancing
continuity of care
Structured Information that is well organized &
legible
Improved Drug/Patient Safety
through safeguarding
measures incorporated into
system
Key Stakeholders
Choosing, implementing or upgrading a CIS should include a broad spectrum of people including:
- Clinicians (Nursing & Physician) -IT Dept.
-Quality/ PI Division-Administration
-Ancillary Dept.'s (Pharmacy, Radiology, Lab)
Electronic Health Record (EHR)What is EHR? • It is a digital collection of patient data.
•Health care professionals use this to document a patient’s health status
•Information can be stored, processed, entered, and accessed
• This provides quality care for patients
8 Components of the EHR1. Health Information and Data
• Patient data that helps to make clinical decisions such as results, diagnoses, medications, etc. Patients supply the core information so health care professionals can gather more data.
2. Results Management• Health care professionals can use this area to manage patients’
current and historical results including labs, tests, and procedures
3. Order Entry Management• Allows health care providers to enter patient orders such as
medications, labs, and nursing.
4. Decision Support• Alerts and reminders can be used by professionals to improve
quality of patient care. This can include medication time reminders, allergy alerts, and new results alert.
(McGonigle & Mastrian, 2009)
5. Electronic Communication and Connectivity• Communication between health care personnel through e-
mail and recording digital messages.
6. Patient Support• Programs for patient education and monitoring tools. This is
for patients to access and become more knowledgeable over health topics.
7. Administrative Processes• This is for health facilities and insurance companies for filing
claims, scheduling appointments, and billing clients.
8. Reporting and Population Health Management• This component is a part of data collection tools that help to
create support for public and private reporting requirements. (McGonigle & Mastrian, 2009)
8 Components Cont’d.
Decision Making SystemStructure
Decisions : Diagnosis, alternative diagnosis› Ie. – red sore throat+white patches on throat+fever= Strep throat
may be = pharyngitis, tonsillitis
Actions: Interventions or care to be administered› Strep throat = antibiotics, Tylenol, contact precautions
Process: Hierchial approach to delineate the importance of each step of care and what order they should be in.› 1) 10 day antibiotics immediately 2) contact
precautions/Tylenol
Decision Making SystemImplementing EBP
“If clinical research is to improve clinical care, it must be relevant, of high quality, and accessible” (Sim, Gorman, Greenes, Haynes, & Kaplan, 2001)
The goal of researchers is to “Develop shareable, machine-readable repositories of executable guidelines that are linked to up-to-date evidence repositories” (Sim, Gorman, Greenes, Haynes, & Kaplan, 2001)
A good decision making system for a CIS is continually evolving and updating
Decision Making SystemsCompanies
Companies that are involved in developing decision making systems are: HBOC, IBM, Siemens Medical Systems, and Health VISION
Siemens Medical Systems - http://www.medical.siemens.com/siemens/en_GLOBAL/gg_diag_FBAs/files/Informatics/Protis/0701021-Protis_Mappe_LO_38456275_1.pdf› Different decision making systems make different decisions!!!
Example – Siemens Medical Systems Protis system :› Delivers a comprehensive overview of results for each patient › Integrates test data from multiple instruments into one report › Supports a broad range of assessment modules: iron and
anemia, nutrition, cardiac risk, kidney, and CSF › Provides doctors with an easy-to-review graphical readout › Simplifies organization of test data, saving time
(Siemens Medical Systems, 2011)
Safety Considerations
Backup/Storage of Data Data Warehouses act as repositories for
an organization’s data; allows its later retrieval (Often located off-site)
By digitizing & centralizing information, it becomes more accessible
Minimizing downtime increases functionality of system
Safety cont.
Protection of Files (viruses, hacker, & worms)
Safeguards: 1. Develop a System Map to identify
all computers connected to internal network, virus scanning software, intrusion detection systems
2. Develop a Security Policy defining authorized users, password policy & accessibility
3. Harden the Software by checking for updates & patches
Safety cont.
4. Reduce the number of access points
5. Install a gateway or firewall to shield your internal network from the Internet; install anti-virus software
6. Require data encryption for information sent over unsecured networks or on portable devices
7. Conduct periodic security audits
Safety cont.
Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act became law in1996; established to provide privacy, confidentiality, & security to patients
Health care entities must insure all coworkers have received HIPAA education
Collaboration with external sites & entities to insure knowledge of policies
Establish disciplinary action for violations Ensure protocol to identify, authenticate, &
properly respond to individual request for records.
HIPAA HIPAA ENFORCEMENT RESULTS BY YEAR
• Increasing use of electronic health records raises the concern for greater opportunity for violating patient confidentiality either unintentionally or purposefully.
• Demonstrates the vigilance necessary to maintain patient privacy

CO$TSeveral things should be considered in the
total cost of implementing an EHR/EMR: purchase price, IT personnel, maintenance,
system capable of handling the software, staff education, & more.
• Purchase Price • Depends on size of facility, implementation
process, & current legacy (operating) system. • Health Information Technology Act of 2007
and the Wired for Health Care Quality Act of 2007 help provide financial support and incentives to implement and EHR/EMR.
• It is estimated that the purchasing cost is $33,000 for each physician, with an additional $1,500 per doctor per month for maintenance.
• IT Personnel• With the additional technology, additional support
staff is needed. • Some EHR companies will charge you extra for
after hour support. • For a 36 provider facility the annual support cost
(software maintenance & upgrade, IT support, and depreciation) were an average $55,000.
• Education• Cost to train staff.• EPIC training for new RN staff at St.Johns consist of
5 eight hour days. (32 hours x $17/hr = $544 per RN)
• Continued Education- every time a new or updated feature is introduced, some form of training/education has to be provided.
• Miscellaneous• Cost for added online security• Potential cost to update systems to support
EMR/EHR• Upgrades
EDUCATION Types of Education
Initial education should be done hands on, led by an instructor that knows the system.
I think it would be helpful to establish different class that are at taught at different paces, depending on ones computer knowledge and comfortability with learning new technology.
Additional learning materials would also be helpful: handouts, online learning modules, videos.
Continuing Education I think re-education should be available
2-4 times a year for those who need refreshers. It would be nice if updates were all implemented together
or in like two segments, but it seems like they happen in spurts.
Educators Initial education should be provided by either
Educators from the company of the EHR/EMR or by staff members who have attended some form of educator training. (These people will have the most knowledge about the system allowing them to further help others.)
Re-education and updates should be taught by the education department, whom should also have a form of educator training, before teaching it to others.
Summary
All this information can at times be overwhelming, but the main thing to remember is that the CIS brings all aspects of the health record together. When researching CIS the eight components of the EHR, comparing decision making systems, safety of the data, adequate cost, and educating software users are all important.
