Integrated dental and medical Electronic Health Records (EHR)
Integrated health care refers to merging administrative, technical, operational, and clinical aspects of care across health disciplines to improve care coordination and patient health outcomes. The benefits of integrating dental and medical Electronic Health Records are well-known. However, the inability for dental and medical providers to access and contribute to shared patient records continues to be a barrier to an integrated health system.
FDI held an international advisory meeting by bringing together HER end-users and the expert groups to discuss needs, preferences, operational barriers, and facilitators. In this presentation, the consensus on a standardized list of OH indicators for optimal utilization of integrated EHRs and ways of overcoming barriers will be discussed.
