LHIMS ensures easy and timely access to every patients health record, irrespective of which Hospital or Health Center they visit across the country.
The medical record architecture within LHIMS is built on the "3 Pillars" of Security, Reliability and Availability
This ensures highly secure storage and retrieval of medical records within the LHIMS platform while offering Continuity of Care benefits to the patient and the medical staff alike.
By offering Cross-facility record access across the entire country of Ghana, LHIMS achieved a first of its kind for Ghana within the African continent.
Patients often dreaded hospital visitations, recounting times their paper tests were often misplaced or torn. Any new doctor they encounter has to rely on his verbal recount of his medical records or he is compelled to undergo a new test. But that was before LHIMS.
The primary objective of patient record portability within LHIMS is to ensure that the medical information is easily accessed across different healthcare facilities across the nation.
Patient Portability coupled with Paperless Hospital workflows is one of the reasons LHIMS has been successful at replacing Medical Record Folders across Ghana with Digital and Electronic Medical Records
