Abstract: | One of the major problems in health care system integration is the formidable cost of mediating between myriad vendors and
policy makers for updating existing heterogeneous systems to support a great variety of standards or interfaces. To provide
cost-effective healthcare system integration solution, this paper presents a Graphical User Interface state model (GUISM)
for automatically exchanging information with existing healthcare software through their GUIs with no modifications needed
to them. This can save the huge cost of upgrading, testing and redeploying the existing systems. By using the GUISM model,
distributed agents are deployed to the client computers interacting with the local electronic medical system (EMR) for communicating
with other EMR systems. The whole system is called virtual EMR system and each client in this system can request needed patient
healthcare information without knowing the actual location of the data. |
