Emerging Health Care Information Systems

Understanding the connections between systems and their use throughout an organization will help you complete future assignments.
Consider the following:
Health care organizations use a variety of systems to ensure quality patient care. This can apply to direct care organizations, such as hospitals and clinics, as well as to the support organizations, such as laboratories, rehabilitation centers, and medical suppliers.
Read this week's reading assignments and conduct additional outside research on medical information systems to complete this assessment.
Complete: Types of Emerging Health Care Information Systems to identify each system, to determine the scope, components, and uses of the emerging technologies, and to explain how they support the organizational strategies of your current or previous health care organization or to a health care organization with which you are familiar.
Format references consistent with APA guidelines. Use the attach file document

Example
The table is pretty straightforward. Don't over think the solution here. I am looking for examples of emerging (new, leading edge) healthcare related information technology systems. An example (don't use this one in your response) would be an Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. For this emerging technology, you might fill out the table this way...

How the System Supports Organizational Strategies

Electronic Health Record (EHR) System
Electronic Health Records, also known as EHRs, are meant to collect and store patient medical information and other health care information for medical organizations
Components may include:
patient information, prescription drug, and other data entry portals.
EHR systems minimize redundancy in patient information and allow timely access to patient information.
I am looking for three (or more) solid examples of this type of healthcare related technology. A few more details in the table would be just about perfect. If you are unfamiliar with these types of systems, a simple Google search on the key words will provide a large number of examples.

Emerging Technology is defined as new and just coming into accepted use. Email, VoIP, and Word are examples of established technologies and would not be considered acceptable answers for this question. Think of new systems that have been around for five to seven years, or less... This would be considered "emerging".
