title: Strategic Deployment of Clinical Models.
abstract: The selection, implementation, and certification of electronic health records (EHR) could benefit from the required use of one of the established clinical model approaches. For the lifelong record of data about individuals, issues arise about the permanence and preservation of data during or even beyond a lifetime. Current EHR do not fully adhere to pertinent standards for clinical data, where it is known for some 20 plus years that standardization of health data is a cornerstone for patient safety, interoperability, data retrieval for various purposes and the lifelong preservation of such data. This paper briefly introduces the issues and gives a brief recommendation for future work in this area.
