The Dermatology Management and Information System (DERM/MIS) was created by the Task Force on Biomedical Communications of the American Academy of Dermatology. The concept of such a System was conceived as part of the National Program for Dermatology and has been actively pursued since. The purpose of this report is to review the current status of DERM/OMS (Dermatology Office Management System); DERM/LIT (Dermatology Literature); DERM/RX (Dermatology treatment); DERM/DDX (Dermatology Differential Diagnosis); DERM/PATH (Dermatopathology). Other components of the DERM/MIS system are currently being planned. Predictions indicate that by the end of this decade a substantial percent of dermatologic offices will have access to some form of computerized programs. The DERM/MIS system has been designed specifically to meet the needs of the practicing dermatologist in the office setting.
