title: An integrated medical record and data system for primary care. Part 8: the individual patient's medical record.
abstract: This is the last in a series of eight articles describing an integrated system of recording medical data as developed and used by the Family Medicine Program at the University of Rochester-Highland Hospital. Compatability of manual and automated systems has been described. The total system allows the practicing family physician to assess morbidity patterns within his/her practice more effectively, to record and monitor patient care, to perform audit, and to conduct research in primary care.
