title: The computer-based patient record vision contrasted with HIS/MIS.
abstract: The computer-based patient record (CPR), or electronic patient record, is an outgrowth of early medical information system (MIS) and hospital information system (HIS) efforts. However, significant additional requirements must be met to achieve the CPR vision. Contrasts between CPR and HIS/MIS are described. Factors key to completing the transitions are identified.
