"Privacy and security continues to be a focus in the quest to position health information holistically for the patient rather than an organization. The streamlining and sharing of patient information is central to health care reform. Not only will this enable improved patient safety and quality of care; it will also result in the reduction of associated care delivery costs"  --Rita K. Bowen, MA, RHIA, CHPS, SSGB, President of AHIMA
