Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Medical Technology
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Electronic Medical Record (EMR) adoption has surged in North America.
  • Significant end-user dissatisfaction exists with current EMR systems.
  • Marketplace solutions alone are insufficient to address EMR technology deficiencies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel architecture for next-generation electronic health records.
  • To address the limitations of current EMRs and end-user concerns.
  • To integrate diverse stakeholder needs into EMR design.

Main Methods:

  • Architectural design for next-generation electronic health records.
  • Inclusion of multiple stakeholders: funders, patients, researchers, and implementers.
  • Consideration of future technological and medical advancements.

Main Results:

  • The proposed architecture aims to resolve current EMR usability issues.
  • Incorporating additional stakeholders unlocks resources and competencies for EMR improvement.
  • The architecture is designed to accommodate future technologies like mobile apps, PHRs, genomics, AI, and personalized medicine.

Conclusions:

  • EMR vendors and the market alone cannot resolve current technology issues.
  • A collaborative, multi-stakeholder approach is essential for advancing EMRs.
  • Informatics researchers are urged to increase their role in EMR research and development.
