Health information exchange and patient safety
Open accessAbstract
One of the most promising advantages for health information exchange (HIE) is improved patient safety. Up to 18% of the patient safety errors generally and as many as 70% of adverse drug events could be eliminated if the right information about the right patient is available at the right time. Health information exchange makes this possible. Here we present an overview of six different ways in which HIE can improve patient safety-improved medication information processing, improved laboratory information processing, improved radiology information processing, improved communication among providers, improved communication between patients and providers, and improved public health information processing. Within the area of improved medication information processing we discuss drug-allergy information processing, drug-dose information processing, drug-drug information processing, drug-diagnosis information processing, and drug-gene information processing. We also briefly discuss HIE and decreased patient safety as well as standards and completeness of information for HIE and patient safety.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
