Twenty-first-century health systems will be built around data and information. An integrated health information system enables the secure flow of data to where they can be used to create information and knowledge to advance policy and health system objectives. This report describes the requirements and the benefits of an integrated health information system; outlines the current situation in Korea in the context of progress across OECD countries; and recommends policy and operational changes to overcome barriers to the efficient exchange and sharing of health data and establish an integrated health information system that supports continuous learning, improvement and innovation.

The first task of the Atlas project, undertaken in 1993, was to establish the geographic boundaries of naturally-occurring health care markets in the United States. Based on a study of where Medicare patients were hospitalized, 3,436 geographic hospital service areas were defined. The hospital service areas were then grouped into 306 hospital referral regions on the basis of where Medicare patients were hospitalized for major cardiovascular surgical procedures and neurosurgery, markers for regionalization. In this Atlas, some measures of medical resources and utilization are reported at the level of hospital service areas (those resources and services which are more common and for which data is sufficiently rich to provide statistical stability even for relatively small areas) and at the level of hospital referral regions, which are used in cases where the number of events (for example, open heart surgery) is relatively small.
