Lesson 4 Flashcards
to make sense of large amounts of data while ensuring the process are valid and secure
Health informatics
She defined Health information Technology
Rouse (2016)
the area of IT involving design, development, creation, use, and maintenance of information systems for the healthcare industry. Automated and interoperable healthcare information systems are expected to improve nedical care, lower costs, increase efficiency, reduce error and improve patient satisfaction
Health Information Technology
Central component of IT infrastructure
Electronic Health record (EHR)
a person’s official, digital health record, and is shared among multiple healthcare providers and agencies
EHR
key elements of IT infrastructure
Personal Health Record (PHR), Health information Exchange (HIE)
a person’s self-maintained health record
Personal Health Record (PHR)
a health data clearinghouse or a group of healthcare organizations that enter into an interoperability pact and agree to share data between their various health IT systems
Health Information Exchange (HIE)
Two widely used types of health information technology
Picture Analysis Archives and Communicating systems (PACS) and Vendor Neutral Archives (NVA)
Have been installed as a way to merge imaging data stored in separate departments’ image banks in a multi-facility healthcare system
Vendor Neutral Archives (VNA)
DICOM
Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine
a composition of individuals, systems and processes that want to share, exchange, and access all forms of health information, including discrete narrative and multimedia
Health interoperability system
they defined health interoperability ecosystem as a composition of individuals, systems and processes that want to share, exchange, and access all forms of health information, including discrete narrative and multimedia
The Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (2017)
it is changing the landscape of the healthcare system and informatics
cloud-based applications
Advantages of Cloud Technology
Integrated and efficient patient care, Better management of data
offers a single access point for patient information
Cloud technology
Disadvantages of Cloud Technology
Potential Risks to potential information and Cloud set-up seems cumbersome

Health informatics had been loosely practiced in the Philippines as early as:
1980s
CHITS
Community Health Tracking Information System
CHITS
Community Health Tracking Information System
GPL
general public license
GPL
general public license
it is an electronic medical record developed through the collaboration of the information and communication technology community and health workers, primarily designed for use in Philippine health centers in disadvantaged areas
CHITS
its implementation has resulted to heightened efficiency among health workers, since there are more time can be spent on providing patient care (DOST, 2012)
CHITS
seen as more novelty rather than a profession
Health informatics
He said that the large initial expenditure for a health information system remains another barrier to the integration of IT in Philippine healthcare
