Creating Virtual Health Systems Used to its full potential, information technology can alter the structure of how care is delivered to individuals. We believe that over time healthcare will shift away from the structured delivery systems of today toward more “virtual health systems” where consumers can construct and reconstruct a care delivery system that meets their individual or family needs. The medical record, ultimately, will be the property of the individual, with each person determining who has access to that record. Those who need the information will be able to get to it, regardless of their location or prior affiliation with the person. Through the creation of a single cohesive architecture for healthcare, the walls between care centers will become transparent as information travels seamlessly between offices and settings. Individuals will give personal information once, and will no longer fill out numerous forms at each care setting. Data collected at one setting will be available to others across the country. While the long-term vision of a virtual health system is still on the horizon, the solutions Cerner is developing today are bringing that picture closer to reality. This transformation will not be complete until every individual in every part of the care process is connected to the right knowledge, resources, and persons at the appropriate time and place. (Knowledge + Technology + People) + (Time + Place) = Optimal Health Outcome There are other boundaries to conquer. With solutions that span the continuum of care and seamlessly unify health systems, payers, and the community, Cerner will lead the way. The transformation of healthcare has begun.
