| Electronic Medical Records Anne Arundel Medical Center will launch its new electronic medical records system in Fall 2009, ushering in a new era of health care safety and automation for the hospital. The system will allow patients and their physicians convenient, electronic access to their health care records. But what is an “electronic medical record?” How do they work? What are the benefits of the new system to AAMC’s patients and how will the new system help AAMC’s physicians provide safer, more efficient care? In this two part edition of the AAMC Health Connection Podcast, Douglas A. Abel, AAMC’s chief information officer and AAMC primary care physician Patricia A. Czapp, M.D., discuss the new electronic medical records system, and provide answers to many of the questions Maryland residents may have about these new systems. |

In Part 1, Abel and Czapp discuss why AAMC felt now was an ideal time to shift from “exploring electronic medical records” to “implementing electronic medical records.” The two also discuss why the federal government has pointed to electronic medical records as one way to provide more efficient health care.
