What is the benefit to hospitals and hospital workers?
With all of a patient’s medical information in one place, doctors and nurses are better equipped to make the right health care decisions for each individual. MyNYP.org is more efficient and convenient than a paper system and even an electronic medical record, which generally doesn’t allow patients to access and input information. MyNYP.org has the potential to improve work flow, protect patient safety, and reduce costs in the long run. Since patients control the information housed in the site as well as the clinicians who access it, it can improve the dialogue between patients and health care providers as well.
