Informatics and healthcare reform.
This paper examines how informatics has been applied in support of healthcare reform objectives, such as reducing the administrative burden on practitioners, reorienting health services to a community and client-based focus, and promoting intersectoral collaboration. It also discusses why some attempts have failed and resulting implications for the future.
