Interesting Stuff

He developed one of the first electronic medical record systems (in
1973), which now carries 200 million clinical observations and is at
use in a number of hospitals. He was the principal investigator for

he Indianapolis Network for Patient Care (INPC), an electronic
medical record network that ties the emergency rooms of all major
Indianapolis hospitals to assist the delivery of emergency
care. Dr. McDonald led the Logical Observation Identifiers Names and
Codes (LOINC) project that is developing universal codes and names for
laboratory and clinical observations and the Indiana
University/University of Pittsburgh consortium SPIN grant
proposal. Indianapolis Pathology Informatics Network


He initiated the development of a major medical message standard
(HL7), and is the chair of the Logical Observation Identifier Names
and Codes (LOINC) committee that has created a database of universal
codes for clinicalobservations, including laboratory tests, clinical
measurements and reporting.


He was a founding board member and past president of the American
Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) and served a seven-year term on
the National Committee on Vital and Health Statistics. He is a
recipient of AMIA's Morris Collen Award and President's Award. He is a
regent of the American College of Physicians and was elected to the
National Academy of Science's Institute of Medicine.
