Abstract
I. Overview of the EHR
I plan to present a balanced overview of electronic health records - the motivation for adoption, potential benefits in health and research, challenges in practice/utilization, and doctor/patient concerns. I will also discuss meaningful use and health information exchanges, and cite examples of implementation. Lastly, as we are in the Philippines, I will touch on disasters and the EHR.
II. Genomic data and the EHR
As genomic technology gets better and less expensive, we ask: how will genome information change clinical practice? I will discuss the properties of genomic data and the ethical, legal and social considerations for incorporating this type of data into the EHR.
