On 1 January 1993, the Electronic Medical Record Task Force at Mayo Clinic published its report. Charged by the Mayo Foundation to define the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) for Mayo, the task force mapped the goals, strategies and time-lines for implementation of the EMR in that institution. The task force was composed predominantly of caregivers (physicians and nurses) with assistance from members of Mayo's information systems and administrative departments. The focus of the effort was care of the patient with the consensus belief that the EMR will improve that process and, if designed robustly, will serve the other information needs of claims, research, education and practice management. The recommendations of this report have been accepted by the Mayo Foundation leadership resulting in the generation of a master plan and the creation of the governance structure for implementation at Mayo. This paper abstracts key portions of the report.
1993年1月1日，梅奥诊所的电子病历特别工作组发表了其报告。该特别工作组受梅奥基金会委托，为梅奥诊所定义电子病历（EMR），制定了在该机构实施电子病历的目标、策略和时间表。特别工作组主要由医护人员（医生和护士）组成，梅奥诊所信息系统和行政部门的成员提供协助。这项工作的重点是患者护理，大家一致认为电子病历将改善这一过程，并且如果设计完善，将满足索赔、研究、教育和实践管理等其他信息需求。该报告的建议已被梅奥基金会领导层接受，从而产生了一份总体规划，并建立了在梅奥诊所实施的治理结构。本文摘录了该报告的关键部分。
