Health information exchange

Health information exchange (HIE) is defined as the mobilization of healthcare information electronically across organizations within a region, community or hospital system.

HIE provides the capability to electronically move clinical information among disparate health care information systems while maintaining the meaning of the information being exchanged. The goal of HIE is to facilitate access to and retrieval of clinical data to provide safer, more timely, efficient, effective, equitable, patient-centered care. HIE is also useful to Public Health authorities to assist in analyses of the health of the population.

HIE systems are designed to hold several factors in precise balance. The foremost of these factors is the purpose for the medical industry, patient care. Secondly, these systems are designed to help physicians practice medicine. By using HIE, physicians will drastically reduce their own time, stress and expense associated with duplicate tests and missing patient information. According to an internal study at Sushoo Health Information Exchange, a single-clinician practice is wasting the equivalent of $17,160/year in time spent dealing with referrals, consults, radiology and other orders alone. This figure does not represent materials (such as paper, toner and electronic devices) associated with the current method of exchanging health information.

Formal organizations are now emerging to provide both form and function for health information exchange efforts, both on independent and governmental/regional levels.

The latter organizations (often called Regional Health Information Organizations, or RHIOs) are ordinarily geographically-defined entities which develop and manage a set of contractual conventions and terms, arrange for the means of electronic exchange of information, and develop and maintain HIE standards.[1]

Clinical Informatics is concerned with use information in health care by clinicians

Clinical informaticians transform health care by analyzing, designing, implementing, and evaluating information and communication systems that enhance individual and population health outcomes, improve [patient] care, and strengthen the clinician-patient relationship. Clinical informaticians use their knowledge of patient care combined with their understanding of informatics concepts, methods, and tools to assess information and knowledge needs of health care professionals and patients,
characterize, evaluate, and refine clinical processes,
develop, implement, and refine clinical decision support systems, and
lead or participate in the procurement, customization, development, implementation, management, evaluation, and continuous improvement of clinical information systems.

Physicians who are board-certified in clinical informatics collaborate with other health care and information technology professionals to promote patient care that is safe, efficient, effective, timely, patient-centered, and equitable.

Health informatics law

Health informatics law deals with evolving and sometimes complex legal principles as they apply to information technology in health-related fields. It addresses the privacy, ethical and operational issues that invariably arise when electronic tools, information and media are used in health care delivery. Health Informatics Law also applies to all matters that involve information technology, health care and the interaction of information. It deals with the circumstances under which data and records are shared with other fields or areas that support and enhance patient care

Health informatics

Health informatics, Health care informatics or medical informatics is the intersection of information science, computer science, and health care. It deals with the resources, devices, and methods required to optimize the acquisition, storage, retrieval, and use of information in health and biomedicine. Health informatics tools include not only computers but also clinical guidelines, formal medical terminologies, and information and communication systems. It is applied to the areas of nursing, clinical care, dentistry, pharmacy, public health and (bio)medical research.
