Chapter Review
This chapter introduced common computing hardware components that the HIT professional must understand to support computing devices in a healthcare environment. Gone are the days when only a few elite people had the skills and knowledge to work with medical equipment and software. Web-based EMR systems hosted locally or by an ASP (private versus public cloud) have become the norm, along with using handheld wireless devices to access these systems.
