"Sharing medical records" focuses on "sharing"

According to reports, Beijing Municipal Health Planning Commission recently said that 30 hospitals in Beijing will achieve the pilot electronic medical records sharing access,Including Peking University Third Hospital, China-Japan Friendship Hospital, Fuwai Hospital, Beijing Tiantan Hospital and other well-known hospitals.


Previously, "shared medical records" in some places, the hospital has tried, but because of imperfect system design, the effect is not satisfactory,Beijing Municipal Health Department takes a number of measures to promote "shared medical records" implementation,Means that in the future patients can reduce unnecessary duplication of assaying, examining in different hospitals for treatment, do not have to travel around different hospitals with paper version of the medical records.After obtaining the patient's authorization, the doctor can access the electronic medical record of the patient in other hospital through a computer,Patients with medical allergies, repeated medication and repeat inspection, the system will start the information reminds."Sharing medical records" not only facilitates the patient's medical treatment, but also restrains the hospital's behaviorm,prevent excessive medical care,it can be said that more than one stroke, its effect worth the wait.


It should be pointed out that patient authorization is a prerequisite for the implementation of electronic medical record sharing.In this process, patient privacy should not be overlooked,By doctors, patients with dual authorization, by the hospital information system security and network security to protect the privacy of the patient in hospital.


More importantly, "sharing a medical record" is not a sharing of a matter, but a "share of the medical records".From some places in the past practice, "sharing" may be, but "sharing" is not enough.In addition to medical records is not complete or aging factors, but also in some hospitals, doctors linked to the economic interests of others, ignore ready-made medical record, but look for an excuse to require patients to double-check.As a result, not only increased patient burden, but also a waste of medical resources, "shared medical records" also lost its due significance.
