Feature-rich Solution: EMR/EHR (A Digital Record of Health Information)

1. Feature-rich Solution: EMR/EHR (A Digital Record of Health Information) Last updated on June 30, 2021 Dash Technologies Inc Healthcare, Medical Device Medical software has become a staple of the healthcare industry in recent years. From EMR/EHR and practice management software to medical billing and patient scheduling, there is a wide range of options as well as tools and features when it comes to medical software. These medical features offer several benefits to help with healthcare organizations from small specialty clinics to larger hospital systems.

2. Some clinicians use the terms EHR and EMR interchangeably, the benefits they offer vary greatly. An EMR (electronic medical record) is a digital version of a chart with patient information stored in a computer and an EHR (electronic health record) is a digital record of health information. What is the Definition of EMR (Electronic Medical Record)? The EMR, or electronic medical record, refers to everything you’d find in a paper chart, such as medical history, diagnoses, medications, immunization dates, and allergies. While EMRs work well within a practice, they’re limited because they don’t easily travel outside the practice. The patient’s medical record might even have to be printed out and mailed for another provider to see it. What is the Definition of EHR (Electronic Health Record)? An EHR or electronic health record is a digital record of health information. It contains all the data you’d find in a paper chart and a lot more. An EHR may include past medical history, vital signs, progress notes, diagnoses, medications, immunization dates, allergies, lab data, and imaging reports. It can also comprise other relevant information, such as insurance information, demographic data, and even data imported from personal wellness devices.

5. Additional Software to Consider Different types of medical software are similar to EMR software and/or can easily be integrated with EMR software. Medical Practice Management software manages functions, for example, appointment scheduling, billing, claims processing, and other administrative tasks for medical practices. Many vendors offer integrated EMR and medical practice management solutions. Healthcare Management software is more comprehensive than MPM software and integrates clinical, operational, and financial functions of medical practice. It manages typical MPM functions as well as processes like financial auditing and regulatory compliance. Medical Transcription software enables physicians/clinicians to transcribe clinical notes for patients using voice dictation. Transcription is occasionally offered as a feature of an advanced ERM solution.

The only difference is that EMR systems are easier to build and integrate because they keep information about a single healthcare practice. Is the EHR secure? Yes. An electronic health record is more secure than an ordinary paper chart. Confidentiality is a large part of healthcare and is upheld with the computerized system. The system is HIPAA compliant and requires a password and log-in for each user. There are multiple layers of security- not everyone can access all aspects of a patient’s record. With the EMR/EHR, are healthcare decisions now led by a computer? No. This technology provides real-time decision support for providers. The computer doesn’t tell the doctor what to do; it simply makes accurate information accessible so the doctor can make the medical decision. What is the future of the EMR/EHR? Computers and computer applications have changed the way we live. Today much of our activities are supported by computers. Medicine is no different. In the future, EMR/EHR will be able to talk with every hospital and other medical providers possibly in the world.
