Technology started to rise up from the Managing client medical images:
mid-90’s. Picture Archiving and Communications Health Informatics was not fully System (PACS) accepted in the medical field. Vendor Neutral Archives (VNA) - Paper-based system Health Information Ecosystem or Health Informatics - simply defined as Health Interoperability Ecosystem is a the acquisition, storage, retrieval, and composition of individual systems, and use of healthcare information. processes that share, exchange and (according to USF health Morsani access all forms of health information. College of Medicine) Health Information Cloud - the ability -plays a critical role in the push to store and access data and programs towards healthcare reform. over the internet instead of on a hard drive. -is an evolving specialization that links information technology, 83% of health care organizations are communications, and healthcare to using cloud-based systems improve the quality and safety of patient care. Advantages of Cloud Technology
One of the benefits of health 1. Integrated and Efficient Patient Care

Electronic Health Record (EHR) is also
called Electronic Medical Record (EMR) – it is the client health record in a digital format. 1. Easier access to files 1998 the faculty member from 2. Better control University of the Philippines pursued 3. Easier update on a study regarding medical informatics. 4. Improved communications 2004 a structured learning program for Components of Health Information Masteral of Science in Health Systems Informatics was created under College Arts and Science in UP (Manila) 2004 Community Health Information Tracking System (CHITS) – first open- sourced that aims to increase efficiencies of local health centers. 2008 CHED has recognized Nursing Informatics as to be part of the curriculum. Different Data Sources 2010 the curriculum was implemented. 1. Demographic Data – patient’s info 2. Administrative Data – institution, Health Informatics is the application of hospital both technology and system in a healthcare setting. 3. Health Risk Information – nag cause ng harm sa patient Health Information Systems covers the records, coding, documentation, and 4.
