The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Health System seeks to align its purpose of "healing humankind" with its approaches for people and performance management. These approaches include lean process improvements initiatives, sustained by efforts to impact daily team member work flows. The electronic health record (EHR) serves as a powerful supportive instrument in improving processes and sustaining performance. For UCLA, the secret to EHR effectiveness lies in creating win-win situations, where organizational objectives are achieved and team member work flows also are improved. Recent UCLA initiatives with medication bar-coding and a stroke telemedicine network highlight such opportunities. Carried out on a national level, such efforts can significantly affect healthcare in the United States. The US Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009's EHR provisions provide a national impetus for broad improvements in healthcare.
加利福尼亚大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）卫生系统试图将其“治愈人类”的宗旨与其人员和绩效管理方法相统一。这些方法包括精益流程改进措施，旨在影响日常团队成员的工作流程。电子健康记录（EHR）是改进流程和维持绩效的有力支持工具。对于 UCLA 来说，EHR 有效性的秘诀在于创造双赢局面，实现组织目标并改善团队成员的工作流程。最近 UCLA 在药物条形码和中风远程医疗网络方面的举措突出了这些机会。在全国范围内开展此类工作可以对美国的医疗保健产生重大影响。2009 年美国复苏与再投资法案（US Recovery and Reinvestment Act）的 EHR 条款为医疗保健的广泛改善提供了全国性的推动力。
