3. Benefits – Scheduled Workflow
Correct Information Available at the point of Decision-making
Reduced Errors and/or Delays in Treatment and Diagnosis
Reduced cost of implementation
Improved Utilization of Staff and Equipment – reduced duplication of data entry
Common Vocabulary for Patient and Administrative Information
Examples: Order, Requested Procedure, Accession Number
Real-world Information Paths are supported by unambiguously defined Transactions
For Example:
Patient Registration
Order Filling
Modality Operations
Specifies transactions that function to match a previously processed unidentified patient with subsequently entered or identified demographic information
Defining a systematic way to handle trauma cases eliminates one of the major reasons for incorrectly identified or “lost” patient information

10. Benefits – Patient Info Reconciliation
Handle unidentified patient (e.g. trauma cases)
Handle demographic information corrections and updates
Propagate changes to all affected systems, update all affected data
Reduces incorrectly identified or “lost” studies
Improved patient care with correct information
Specifies transactions that function to match a previously processed unidentified patient with subsequently entered or identified demographic information
