“…14 The Child Health Advanced Records Management system (CHARM) was developed by the Utah Department of Health to support an incremental approach to integration of child health information. 15 Systems such as these are beneficial in that they assist in fulfilling the obligation of public health agencies to ensure that the information they hold on all children in a population (eg, immunizations, lead, and newborn screenings) can be shared electronically with clinicians to keep a child's health provider(s) fully informed. They illustrate feasibility in that these systems capture data and create a consolidated record of the health services received by an individual child for authorized users of that information.…”

Public health agencies at state and local levels are integrating information systems to improve health outcomes for children. An assessment was conducted to describe the extent to which public health agencies are currently integrating child health information systems (CHIS). Using online technology information was collected, to assess completed and planned activities related to integration of CHIS, maturity of these systems, and factors that influence decisions by public health agencies to pursue integration activities. Of the 39 public health agencies that participated, 18 (46%) reported already integrating some or all of their CHIS, and 13 (33%) reported to be planning to integrate during the next 3 years. Information systems most commonly integrated include Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI), immunization, vital records, and Newborn Dried Bloodspot Screening (NDBS). Given the high priority that has been placed on using technology to improve health status in the United States, the emphasis on expanding the capability for the electronic exchange of health information, and federal support for electronic health records by 2014, public health agencies should be encouraged and supported in their efforts to develop, implement, and maintain integrated CHIS to facilitate the electronic exchange of health information with the clinical healthcare sector.

“…To successfully implement integrated HIS package, the way health departments do business will need to change and the ways people do their jobs will need to change too. Its success is largely dependent on the commitment of health management, IT staff, and program staff to implementing integrated HIS that will change the way they do their jobs [9]. Thus, change management is essential for preparing a company for the introduction of a HIS, and its successful implementation.…”

This article reports on the project management and Culture Change Programme adopted by the NHS Greater Glasgow Health Board to deliver an electronic patient record (EPR) to support cardiology and stroke clinical services. To achieve its vision for the EPR (;to "really make a difference" to patient care by providing to the right person, the right information, under the right safeguards') the Board recognized that attending to social and organizational issues is at least of equal importance to addressing strictly technical concerns. Consequently, an ICT Culture Change Programme (ICT CCP) was devised and implemented to assist in the management of change, and in particular to facilitate a visionary clinical and cultural environment operating in conjunction with the evolving technical environment. In this article we describe the key components of this approach, outline the benefits we believe have accrued, and describe the steps being taken to build upon lessons learned.
