Health Information Today Scattered Records
Each person's records are scattered at whatever locations care has been given
Mostly paper Information sharing not effective
Cumbersome, expensive, time-consuming, and fallible
No mechanism to collect patient information from disparate sources
No responsible institution Each patient's complete records (from all
sources) are not available for care Need to create these institutions

Health Information Today (cont.) Consequences of health information deficit
Medical errors common – 44,000-98,000 preventable deaths/year
(just in hospitals) Quality poor
– only 55% of adults receive recommended care (RAND study)
Costs out of control– rising >10% annually– consuming an increasing proportion of
GDP– now $2+ trillion/year and growing

Goal: Comprehensive Patient Information at Any Point of Care
All medical records must be electronic Combine multiple scattered records
into complete “master” record Enable rapid review
Graphs Charts Enhancement of relevant information
Automated reminders to improve quality and reduce errors

Transmitted (at no charge) Patient requests for records must
be honored under HIPAA Stored
Central repository (in a community)

III. Solution: Health Record Bank (HRB) Secure community-based repository
of complete health records Access to records completely
controlled by patients (or designee) “Electronic safe deposit boxes” Information about care deposited
once when created Required by HIPAA
Allows EHR incentives to physicians to make outpatient records electronic
Operation simple and inexpensive

For-profit HRB startups For-profit HRB establishes
community non-profit for governance Consumers Physicians
For-profit operates HRB under contract from community non-profit Pays fee to non-profit for
governance Provides EHRs or EHR incentives
to physicians
