Abstract

The Electronic Health Record (EHR) is the central information object for healthcare and medical related industries. However, it has been given little academic attention per se, because it is always embedded in the information system of the hospitals. This paper consider several aspects of EHR management systems: security and privacy, data mining, design of decision support systems, acceptance by users and producers of health resources, and system implementation.
