Description

Japanese government had been promoting introduction of an electronic medical record system (EMR) to more than 60% of hospitals with over 400 beds as well as clinics in Japan by the year of 2006. However, the present condition of the EMR introduction is far inferior to the afore-mentioned goal. Therefore, in the present study, we made a questionnaire survey on the EMR introduction for 450 hospitals and analyzed the results of its answers replied from 126 hospitals including the special functioning hospitals in order to contribute to promotion of the introduction in the future. The state of the EMR introduction of 126 hospitals was as follows: ①already introduced; 48 cases, ②having a plan of the introduction; 43 cases, ③having no plan of the introduction; 35 cases. In the present paper, we report on outlines of the purpose of the EMR introduction, comparison of merits and demerits of the EMR introduction, problems at the introduction stage and so on for above 48 cases. Furthermore, a little suggestion is made to promote the introduction from the results of the analysis.
