Abstract

Health care providers resort to informal temporary practices known as workarounds for handling exceptions to normal workflow imposed by health record systems (EHRs\EMRs). Workarounds may seem favorable at first sight, but it could jeopardize the patient safety and the efficiency of the care. Therefore, the use of information technology in our daily lives has been on the rise. Digital health services and technologies are changing the way in which healthcare is provided and experienced worldwide. This change brings some countries significant health system efficiencies and clinical benefits, including improvements in the management of clinical risk and patient safety. Conversely, constant vigilance of our broader digital health system is required, supported through a safety culture and governance structures to maintain oversight and management of unique safety and quality challenges of using a digital healthcare system. These challenges could go beyond technology and impact the whole system, so, Identification is crucial aspect to guarantee an efficient and effective delivery of health services and public health management, that leads to achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG). This paper provides insight into the effects of EHR\EMR workarounds on organizational workflows and outcomes of care services. Also, it highlights the key areas where foundational identification could be leveraged to improve healthcare outcomes for the patients, providers, and the government agencies, that in turn reinforces the identification system as a whole. However, it is also important to recognize that there are risks come with it such as challenges in planning, implementing, and integration, in particular, this includes ensuring that foundational systems are robust, inclusive, and that there are sufficient measures in place for the confidentiality and security of the personal data.
