I have 25 years of experience, and specialize in the field of biomedical informatics with specific knowledge in the area of electronic medical records, electronic health records, clinical decision support, computer-based provider order entry, and health information technology-related patient safety events. I have published on such topics as health information technology-related patient safety, clinical decision support and electronic health or medical records. I have testified on personal health records, automated document generation systems and electronic medical records. I am currently working to develop a series of guides to help healthcare organizations, electronic medical record vendors, and government entities ensure that the electronic medical records, as implemented, are functioning in a safe and effective manner.
