Genomic data testing is becoming more prevalent in medicine, making it even more important to enable it for EHR integration?
Progress in genomic testing technology has not only interjected clinical genomic data into the medical sector, but genomic testing has also become a vital tool to help enhance clinical decision making and, ultimately, precision medicine. Thus, EHR integration is vital to expand genomic data utilization.
But as genomic data becomes increasingly complex, the EHR must evolve to integrate and interpret this data, primarily through improved interoperability.
Health IT professionals may consider access, genetic literacy, patient autonomy, privacy and protection, and data transferability. Experts must also identify relevant genomic data sets to facilitate and integrate genomic information into patient care.
