Medical Informatics 20/20

Imagine a healthcare system in which digital and mobile technologies, medical knowledge at the point of need, and collaboration among providers deliver safe, high-quality care for everyone—a healthcare system that does not require the patient to complete the same forms at every access point. Instead, imagine an 'open' healthcare system where primary care physicians have access to your specialty medical information and specialists have access to your primary care information via secure inter-connected 'smart' EHRs that are integrated with personalized eHealth service providers and delivered directly to a multi-purpose, intelligent, mobile digital device that can be carried in one’s pocket.
