A Critical Reality Must Be Changed
A 2000 report from the Institute of Medicine estimated that as many as 98,000 U.S. patients die annually due to preventable medical errors - many due to lack of access to complete patient information - subsequent studies have confirmed that inadequate information systems in U.S. clinics, hospitals, and physician practices affect the quality of care patients receive.

Better Information Management
You now have access to ICC EHR software that back your decisions, helping you to determine the best possible course of action, treatment, prescription, and helps you exert a measure of control over your own time.
The Crux Of Meaningful Use
The immediate effect of adopting our EHR system is measured in more efficient patient care, better patient experience, and overall gain in productivity through effective resource management. This is the essence of meaningful use.
Blumenthal: "president has said that everyone will have an electronic health record by 2014."
National Coordinator for Health IT David Blumenthal said, "Electronic health records and other forms of health IT can certainly be improved, and there are examples of bad implementation and other problems." He added, "I still think that on the whole, across the country we'd be better off with universal availability of electronic health records. We'd have fewer errors, fewer missed diagnoses, less duplication of tests and fewer adverse drug events."
When asked about his own transition to EHRs, Blumenthal said, "At some time over the last 10 years, I was basically required to use electronic records. I learned it gradually over time." He added, "As I got more capable, I became increasingly convinced of its value in clinical care. It was making me a better physician."
Blumenthal noted that the "president has said that everyone will have an electronic health record by 2014." He said, "That is the goal we are working toward right now. We are trying to make the network available as fast we can" (Talbot, MIT Technology Review, November/December 2009).
