Computer-based patient records: challenges to implementation.
In summary, behavioral healthcare organizations are faced with an environment which is demanding that cost and quality decisions be made based upon the information gleaned from patient records. The challenge before the industry is how best to collect, store, retrieve and disseminate this information to key decision makers. The CPR has been identified as one means of addressing this challenge. Hopefully, the results of this study will help behavioral healthcare organizations in developing a CPR system to meet this challenge.
