Abstract
The 2015 Institute of Medicine (IOM) report “Improving Diagnosis in Health Care” highlights the problem of missed and delayed diagnoses and the need to ensure that health information technologies support patients and health care professionals in the diagnostic process. However, most health care systems around the world are far from achieving that goal at present. Dr Singh, who testified to the IOM panel and has worked on several national reports and initiatives related to diagnostic safety and health IT, will present a brief snapshot of research on understanding and improving diagnosis in electronic health record-enabled healthcare settings.
