- In healthcare each department historically built its own records, ordering, and scheduling, and the patient whose care crosses departments is reassembled by hand until an enterprise EHR and interoperability standards extract the horizontal layer.
This sourceEstablishes that hospital departments historically maintained separate records, ordering, and scheduling systems, fragmenting the cross-department patient identity until an enterprise master patient index (EMPI) extracts a shared identity layer.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not confirmed. The DOI recorded for this work did not resolve when it was last checked, so it is shown above but not linked. The citation may still be sound; the recorded identifier is not. Flagged for repair.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
