The periodic examination and health promotion center (PEHPC) in Seoul National University Hospital has developed and adopted an information system supported by computers which use an electronic medical record to improve the quality of patient care, advance the science of medicine, lower health care costs, and enhance the education of health care professionals. This information system adopted the concept of incomplete and evolutionary systems to conduct the pursuit of practicalness and efficacy. It has increased efficiency to save costs and to enhance the quality of the medical service. It has also activated clinical research due to ease of managing data. We are also preparing for telecare. Telecare and WWW-using information system is postponed because the protection of a patients privacy is not established.
