What is the purpose of interoperability, and why is it so crucial for the health sector?
What’s behind the recent increase in momentum?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In healthcare, challenges have persisted for decades, from managing an aging population to grappling with a shortage of medical professionals, disparities in healthcare access, and soaring costs.
Integrating digital tools into healthcare practices has become essential to address these issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the rapid adoption of Health Information Technologies (HITs) has often outpaced the development of interoperability standards, leading to frustration among providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In particular, the amount of clerical burden due to the fallout from a lack of interoperability between electronic health record systems (i.e., documentation redundancy with inefficient workflows) falls heavily on the shoulders of physicians and their staff . These administrative burdens inevitably affect physicians\u2019 time spent with their patients and contribute to feelings of general burnout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
