This study reviews electronic health record (EHR) standards and proposes a flexible design. It aims for a unified EHR standard for diverse clinical and cultural settings.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Current electronic health record (EHR) and messaging standards present challenges.
  • Past difficulties in EHR implementation highlight the need for improved standards.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the state of the art in EHR and messaging standards.
  • To propose a theoretical design basis for a formal yet flexible EHR.
  • To recommend a path toward unified EHR specifications.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current EHR and messaging standards.
  • Development of a theoretical design framework for EHR systems.
  • Analysis of past challenges in EHR implementation.

Main Results:

  • Identification of limitations in existing EHR standards.
