A hospital information system (HIS) is an element of health informatics that focuses mainly on the administrational needs of hospitals. HIS is a comprehensive, integrated information system designed to manage all the aspects of a hospital’s operation, such as medical, administrative, financial, and legal issues and the corresponding processing of services. With the help of HIS, dealing with patient records has become very easy and manageable. The reliability, integrity, transparency and reproducibility of the records are best maintained accordingly. HIS provides a common source of information about a patient’s health history. We, at our Institute have learnt that proper HIS can indeed mitigate many pitfalls encountered in the traditional paper based patient information system and strongly advocate the use of computerized patient management system (CPMS).
