| The healthcare industry today is faced with the conflicting forces of stringent regulation, unrelenting cost pressures, increasing expectations from informed consumers, and the need to improve the quality of care. Representing nearly one-seventh of our Gross National Product, healthcare spending is greater in the US than any other nation in the world. This has focused more attention on the industry from the federal government and the legal profession, complicating the already difficult task of providing the best in patient care and service.
Healthcare providers continually strive to maximize the number of patients seen without sacrificing quality of care. However, other objectives have risen in importance because of the legal and regulatory climate, most notably the need to:
- simplify access to medical records to quickly and accurately address patient needs while maintaining security and confidentiality.
- track communications to ensure compliance with malpractice and privacy legislation.
The industry is suffering from a seemingly perpetual increase in both organizational complexity and administrative processes. As a result, healthcare providers are spending more time and money on non-patient care activities, such as scheduling, coordinating, supervising and documenting care. This increase in the procedural and regulatory complexity has compromised the delivery of care, resulting in medication errors, documentation errors, inappropriate or unnecessary treatment and other quality of care issues.
