HIMSS Market Insights Infographic
One Patient, One Record Healthcare organisations rely on a wide range of systems to deliver care — from EHRs and pharmacy software to scheduling tools and billing platforms. But when each system stores patient data separately, inconsistencies, duplicate records and identity challenges can disrupt care and limit AI implementation, workflow optimisation and data exchange. Recent HIMSS Market Insights research confirms that healthcare leaders recognise the strategic importance of accurate patient identity data, yet persistent issues continue to undermine progress.
