The use of Electronic Medical Records (EMR), Electronic Health Records (EHR) and Hospital Information Systems (HIS) results in the accumulation of large volumes of data. In addition, where paper systems exist in parallel a lot of data resides there as well.

Healthcare organizations track data for because of government regulatory requirements, from internal motivators such as cost reduction strategies, performance improvement initiatives and other requirements such as staff recertification, etc.

However, data collection or accumulation is one aspect. Converting this data into something that is meaningful, which can guide decision making, etc., is important and challenging. Several hurdles need to be overcome in this knowledge management process including dealing with data in diverse formats, important data that resides electronically in free form text, data captured in alternate forms (e.g. paper, voice recordings, etc), data in alternate systems that do not exist in the main system (e.g. lab systems), etc.
