 | | This is the reason it became necessary to 'shift' the healthcare responsibility to individuals and families, so called 'balancing' the responsibility of the cost of healthcare among your responsibility, your family's, your employer's, your government's, your doctor's and your insurer's responsibility. | | | We recognize it is very difficult to look at medicine and healthcare just from a business point of view, yet we have no choice not to look at healthcare in a business view. | | | For sure, there are still more room to improve cost effectiveness in healthcare, but for arriving at a stable and sustainable system we might have to look at the system from some fundamental and philosophical points. |

| | Thus, the continuity of patients' care is repeatedly interrupted and delayed, at times putting them at risk and adding to the already high costs of healthcare through wasted time and repetitive tests. | | | Content consists of a basic set of information: the most relevant and timely facts about a patient's status (allergies, diagnoses, medications), pertinent healthcare (care documentation; recent procedures; reason for referral, transfer or discharge), and recommendations for future care. | | | There are numerous examples of how IT is being used to improve services and clinical quality in California, particularly in the transformation of clinical care and the trend toward a more patient-centered system. |
