The patient’s information history is vital for adequate care. Still, despite the critical nature of this information, clinics and hospitals look to dedicate more attention to their patients, by automating as well as they can the capture, management, and search of information of the medical files.
Many clinics and hospitals find themselves jammed by the growing quantity of information that they have to manage and process. Furthermore, access to the information is very limited because numerous times records are on paper or are only available within the system of a department and it is not possible to share it with the rest of the people involved.
The efficient management of medical information in a hospital is critical to bring the necessary quality to the process, increase the satisfaction of the patients and their families, comply with the legal requirements, and lastly, but not least, comply with the financial objectives like any other company.
Therefore, it is necessary to centralize all the documentation of a patient in the same database - the medical information, the patient’s admission information, information required by the insurance companies, etc. An electronic clinical file is the foundation to be able to incorporate, in electronic format, the results of medical tests and start the basic information infrastructure for telemedicine services.
