Profile's object oriented design:

• provides the ability to report on almost any parameter entered into the system
• allows simultaneous access by many users to a single patient record, clinicians, reception and nurses can access and read or write to a patient file at the same time
• delivers unparalleled speed and performance for users

The GEHR model: The Good European Health Record has been put together by ~ 250 clinicians in Europe who have analysed how clinical records are to be stored, transferred, entered, altered and recognised.

"Advantages of GEHR over current electronic and paper-based systems include the following. GEHR:

• improves the quality of clinical care, while significantly reducing IT costs of providers,
• integrates contributions by all clinicians, including GPs, specialists, hospital staff, allied health workers, pathology and radiology services, as well as patients themselves,
• provides a complete picture of a patient's health status enabling better care to be delivered,
• dramatically reduces the level of data errors compared with paper records and current EHR systems,
• allows patients complete control over access and distribution of their health records,
• enables health records to be safely and securely communicated between healthcare organisations such as hospitals, GP clinics and community health providers,
• is closely linked to Australian and international health informatics standards,
• ensures that electronic health records are "future proof", interoperable, and automatically processable through the use of a revolutionary new approach called "archetypes",
• ensures that electronic health record system software and databases no longer have to be continually changed to incorporate new requirements, and allows
• version-controlled health records, enabling all past states of the health record to be investigated in the event of clinical or medico-legal investigations"

 

Intrahealth's Profile and Insync products are the only commercially available products in Australia and New Zealand based on GEHR and provide a degree of future proof How practice management software records notes and medico-legal requirements' are becoming a "hot" issue in healthcare in Australia.

GEHR is an international "World Best Practice" standard recognised in Australia. Medico-legally this means that as a clinician, you can be reassured that Profile has been designed and is written from a full evaluation of "World Best Practice" standards.

The "write once, read many" architecture allows unlimited versioning of important information within the medical record, tracking when information was altered and by whom
