Dear Editor(s)

Through their article, Lee, Kimball, Deussing, and Kirsch present a detailed and well-structured section that covers essential aspects of emergency management and health care IT systems.Reference Lee, Kimball and Deussing ¹ This article’s advantages include: 1) its comprehensive coverage that provides an in-depth overview of the various IT systems used in emergency management and health care, their integration challenges, and recent innovations, 2) this article offers historical context and background information, making this topic accessible to readers who may not be experts in the IT field, 3) Includes examples of specific IT systems and platforms, as well as case studies that help illustrate practical applications and challenges.

However, this article has several minor shortcomings that need to be considered by the authors: 1) the weakness of an international perspective in the study, 2) the absence of a user perspective in IT systems, and 3) the absence of financial coercion, which often informs decision-makers in designing appropriate policies in IT system. Future studies can capture these points for further exploration through 1) an international perspective that can investigate partnerships between administrators and Non-State Institutions in certain health cases such as bullying;Reference Suryanti and Muttaqin ^{2 ,} Reference Muttaqin, Tebay and Ohoiwutun ³ 2) delving into the perspective of IT system users to obtain a clearer picture of the need for emergency management in health services;Reference Gjøsæter, Radianti and Chen ⁴ and 3) understanding the financial effectiveness of IT use and maintenance in supporting health services, while providing accurate data for decision-makers.Reference Amoro, Abiiro and Alatinga ⁵

Beyond that, this is a thorough and informative article that provides valuable insight into IT systems’ current state and future direction for reportable medical events. Its strengths lie in its comprehensive coverage and use of real-world examples, while areas for improvement relate primarily to presentation and broadening the scope of discussion.
