title: Electronic health records.
abstract: A radical change in technical approach is needed to achieve electronic health records suitable to support an engineered system of healthcare. This chapter suggests a redefinition of interoperable health information. It provides examples of how to break the electronic health record challenge into component parts to match computational technique to the scale of the problem handled by a component.
