Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is an architectural style (not a technology) that can help healthcare providers realize the ambitious goals and expectations surrounding EHR systems. Implemented properly, SOA can help healthcare IT organizations reduce systems-integration costs, improve visibility and control over business processes, and enable reuse, while providing an architecture that empowers the business and increases the ability to change. EHR systems are poster children for SOA because SOA provides an architecture that is intended to support change and innovation. However, SOA will require new approaches to managing EHR implementation and deployment and new approaches to enterprise software governance
