Prior to administering care, an individual’s care team will have ready access to updated electronic health information that reflects the latest changes in their health and care.
Individuals and health professionals will be able to discover and compare online the cost of a healthcare service, procedure, or drug before it is ordered/prescribed.
Individuals will have tools available to set preferences and control how, with whom, and for what purposes their electronic health information is shared.
Individuals will be able to receive care at home for a range of healthcare services as well as for managing chronic conditions.
Individuals will no longer fill out paper forms for any healthcare encounter or process.
Individuals will be able to use internet-based tools, apps, and other connected devices to track and share electronic health information with their healthcare providers about their health and lifestyle.
All referral and transition of care data will be electronic.

Reporting for public health, quality measurement, and safety will all be completed automatically and electronically.
Researchers will be able to use inclusive, representative datasets to compare the real-world performance of treatments, procedures, devices, and drugs.
Research and testing for new decision support, workflows, and other work processes will be able to be conducted across multiple sites and among different technologies.
Researchers and health professionals will spend little to no time normalizing data for research and quality activities.
Preventable data-related safety events will be reduced to zero.
Health professionals will spend less time on administrative tasks and more time caring for their patients.
