According to a news release, and a report in the Philadelphia Business Journal, the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance* (DOBI) launched an effort last week to create a statewide
electronic medical records system. "An
electronic health records system would improve the quality of health care and make health information available when and where it is needed," DOBI Acting Commissioner Donald Bryan said in the release. "Diagnostic tools would suggest the best medical practices. Medical errors would be minimized. Payers and specialists would be able to avoid unnecessary tests and the system would lower administrative costs." The Department and Healthcare Information Networks and Technologies (HINT) and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Task Force will spearhead the project.ReadPermalink*|*Email this*|*Linking*Blogs*|*Comments
