Current environment
> May not be adequate for information demands of modern health care delivery
> Disparate systems – between and within hospitals and states
> Paper-Based records with electronic PMIs
> Hybrid Systems – Paper, Scanning, EHR

Major problems
> Lack of uniformity• Proliferation of medical record forms• Standards and guidelines within individual
hospitals• Disparate systems
> Issues with the changeover of the medical record format• The need for constant reliable access the
information
> Keeping the Health Information Management profession at the forefront of these discussions
