Implementing Systems and EHRs to Improve Health and to Manage Quality and Patient Safety
Johns Hopkins – The implementation of technology and electronic health record systems (HER) to improve quality and safety must be tightly coupled with the creation of a culture of safety. We will always be "one interface away from perfection", but a commitment to process improvements and simplification of the environment will generate benefits not achievable with technology alone.

  • Create the culture
  • Measurements matter
  • Technology is only a tool, but a necessary one
  • Continuous learning is critical
  • Best practices in implementing computerized physician order entry and bar-coding

Department of Veterans Affairs – Optimizing people's health, quality and safety via "HealthePeople"

  • Critical success factors to optimize health within and across care settings through the collaborative creation of a US "virtual health system" that includes:
  • Adopting national health information standard(s)
  • Making available personal health record systems (PHRs)
  • Enabling health information exchange (IE) when authorized and appropriate
  • Greatly increasing the affordability, availability and interoperability of high performance, standards-based electronic health record systems (EHRs)
  • Results from current VistA and the future HealtheVet-VistA EHR system -- Providing "proof of concept" that a virtual system is feasible and would positively impact health, quality and safety
