12. Information management

Information management covers the way in which information is obtained, recorded, held, used and shared. This section covers the information that the practice manager needs to know about the way in which both computer-based and paper-based patient records are made and held. This includes information governance issues such as security of records, confidentiality of medical information, and access to medical records. This section also encompasses the non-medical use of computers within the surgery, for example for accounting purposes.
