When an institution decides to use an Electronic Health Record (EHR), several concerns must be addressed such as the current obstacles to the implementation of digital technologies, bottom line cost, cultural factors, and the reluctance to accept new technologies. However, despite these obstacles, the evidence of the utilization of information system is worth the investment (Rocha, 2011). The benefits of electronic medical records include reducing errors, improving the clinical decisions of patient’s encounter, and disseminating information in real time. Computerized physician order entry requires electronic or computer support, such as, the use of a computer or mobile device platform to enter all physician orders to include medication orders. Role of Health Care Information Systems I work for the Department of Défense (DOD) and the Department of the Army for almost 30 years. I am currently employed locally at the Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center (CRDAMC) which is located at Fort Hood, Texas. This facility uses a healthcare information system to coordinate the daily operations of each area of the medical field. The medical information system of the DOD is increasingly advancing, and its growing ability enables the Department of Defense to use these systems extensively throughout the hospital and DOD medical facilities globally. In fact, the use of certain levels of the information management in medical service providers, medical institutions, and medical systems has become widespread (Mandal, 2016). For example, an EHR can increase the level of clinical management so that the data of comprehensive patients can be kept within the clinic campus of the healthcare staff. The EHR program provides an interactive clinical decision that offers careful guidance for potential problems, for example, drug interaction, allergy, or severe laboratory values, and potential concerns or tips on preventive care as well as clinical guidelines. The Patient Portal is useful software which improves systemic procedures, provides online patient learning, communicates with physicians in electronic form and provides digitalized access to patient’s personal healthcare information. Financial & operational management is addressed by the healthcare system software’s Medical billing system, patient data protection, data quality, and continuity of care (McLeod & Clarke, 2009). The Medical Billing Coders and the Third-party Billing department assist with the financial part of the EHR. Patient’s safety is a subset of health care and is defined as the prevention, rescue, and the adverse effects or injuries caused by medical procedures. Healthcare Information System Health information technology includes a variety of techniques, simplification of more advanced decision support, and simple integration with medical technology. There are many opportunities for improving medical care in health information technology, including reducing human error, improving diagnostic effects, coordinating care, improving practice vigilance, and tracking data from time to time. Since the publication of the original Institute of Medicine Report (IOM) report, health information technology developed and adopted, and the evidence of the health information technology impact on the safety of the patient provided at various levels (Vaast, 2007). The hospital's information system or framework is essentially a computerized system which can efficiently manage as well as control all the data or information so that healthcare providers can effectively complete their work. Since the beginning of the system in the late 1980's, with this system, the timing and medical facilities have been modernized. Currently, computers can now provide information in real time as staff primarily uses this to manage patient care and hospital inventory. The DOD Information System includes clinical, ancillary services, booking appointments, provider template scheduling, data reporting, and data analysis applications. Electronic Health Records offers many benefits, including, however, but not limited to providing quality patient health care and excellent financial management. Health information system should also be patient-centered, medical-focused, scalable, and affordable. Technology changes very fast, but it should be capable of adapting to the hospital's development. Physician information systems are provided by computers, networks, servers, and use a broad application and popular application such as EMRs, Electronic Health Records and so on. These services are 24/7 remote sources which allow hospital employees and staff members to efficiently troubleshoot issues arising during the system usage (Dantanarayana & Jayaweera, 2014). Conclusion The study concluded that the growing number of health services in the healthcare sector and the use of these methods of health care had increased the demand for IT professionals in healthcare sector which are useful for emerging technology solutions. Those who work in this rapidly developing field will need to continuous learn to maintain one's advantage because the demand for leaping newcomers is terrifying. Along with user-friendly features, you also need to provide yourself with access to a good Health Information System online. In this case, caregivers will not have to tie themselves down to their desk, and it will also provide information on when and where it is most needed. It would be more cost-effective if a web-based system is used to share data between two or more healthcare delivery systems. Then they can use Internet-based Health Information System in medical organizations in different geographies and can quickly share patient relevant data. References Dantanarayana, G., & Jayaweera, P.

This aspect of literature focuses on creating an overview of the actual existing literature and even implementing EHR for general findings and also for taking care of patients and quality of information system as well. Health information system focuses on developed and open clinical decision support system, and this too specifies the domain in a knowledgeable base. Data mining engines for EHR databases assist in the development knowledge level and even standardize such that it improves the quality of healthcare and even reduces medical errors or instead guarantees the safety of patients as clinicians also develop correct and accurate decisions (Oh et al., 2015). The architectural schema consists of three health information systems (HIS) used to complete the Electronic Health Record. The primary system is the official record keeper, and it is specific to the Medical Treatment Facility. This is where the patient encounter will reside before it is pushed up to the Central Data Repository (CDR). This is also where the ancillary services such as the Laboratory, Pharmacy, and Radiology services will perform their work or tests before they are inputted back in the other two systems. The main system is the oldest of the three and uses the DOS-based system. It is also the architectural foundation or platform for which the other two HIS are connected. The second system is the Outpatient System, and it is used globally. This system is Windows Based and is used by the primary care clinics, specialty care clinics, and Medical Home clinics. The Outpatient encounters are documented in this system and order entry is inputted. The third system is Windows based as well and is the Inpatient System, and it is responsible for the records of all patients that are admitted onto wards or ICUs, the Emergency Room, as well as Same-Day Surgery clinics. Once the Main HIS obtains the results from the ancillary services, it will transmit these results or communicate via an HL7 message and appear as a New Result in the Outpatient or Inpatient systems. This integration system uses computerized patient files to encompass all functional area needed for patient care. It has seven subsystems within its integrated electronic
