The goal of informatics is to improve patient care and enhance delivery of care throughout a facility and across institutions. Informatics benefits include: financial, streamlined health care records, shared knowledge, increased coordination of care, improved patient outcomes, enhanced patient participation, and advances in public health.
Health care is moving toward more accountable care—payment may be based on outcomes rather than encounters. To improve patient care, institutions can collect data to determine areas that need improvement. Learn the most common quality initiatives.

Nursing informatics can increase accurate communication, help create an environment of greater efficiency, and help reduce errors resulting in improved patient safety. In many ways, the backbone for these improvements is the electronic health record (EHR). This program describes how the EHR works with informatics in the provision of quality patient care. It explains the positive impacts of informatics in healthcare for the patient, facility, and personnel; presents examples of quality initiatives for improving the function of the healthcare system; discuss how technology has advanced the field of healthcare to make it more efficient; and explain how to use different forms of technology for better quality service in healthcare.
