AUTOMATED HEALTH INFORMATION SYSTEM




Automation in healthcare began in the late 1960s and early 1970s with systems designed to meet specific needs within health care. In most institutions financial applications developed first. These included payroll, billing, and general ledger.


AUTOMATED HIS is a comprehensive, integrated information system designed to manage the medical, administrative, financial and legal aspects of a hospital and its service processing. Traditional approaches encompass paper-based information processing as well as resident work position and mobile data acquisition and presentation.New studies emerge each day pointing to the ability for Electronic Health Record to improve patient quality of care and the practice of medicine.

 New technologies that are invented today are  helpful not just to ease a certain work but also to improve the quality of life of our patients. As a student, I am very thankful because I was born with these type of technology that will further enhance my skills and capabilities as a human being.
