    The staff employed in a medical facility depends on many things to keep the quality of patient care in the positive and efficient. Physicians and nursing need the current and most recent information on a patient to ensure this. The EHR system makes this more possible because the rate for exchange of information increases with this system. It not only provides more accessibility to a patient records from the other facilities and departments that also carry their medical information, but can also ensure the patient will get the best care possible by keeping the staff up to date with their medical information using these coordinating methods. Some of these methods include information such as diagnostic reports where they can be uploaded into the system instantly once complete and offer a faster rate of review for the staff. Did I mention that this system also notifies the assisting staff when these reports are ready for review? Imagine how many live could be saved or changed with this? (Dickerson, Sensmeier, 2010).…

    Institute of Medicine has noted several factors that play in misdiagnosis and they are as follows. Rushed visits, time constraints are always a factor in almost all lines of work especially so with health care. According to Rice (2015) time or resources are limited, all people, including physicians rely on mental shortcuts or heuristics, an abbreviated way of thinking. That can lead physicians to make quick assumptions and introduce cognitive bias. This not only increases the likelihood of missing disease warning signs, but leads to poorer quality decisions. Unclear communication with patients, communication is vital, it is easier to make a sound diagnosis with a complete history of a patient.

Many facilities use this format since it is easy to locate documents. For example, if a physician needs to reference a recent lab report, it can easily be found in the laboratory section of the record. However, if a physician wanted to reference all information about a particular diagnosis being treated or treatment given on a particular day, many sections of the record would have to be referenced making it difficult to amass all the information for that specific diagnosis difficult.…
