EMRs (Electronic Medical Records) such as Aprima EMR are computerized clinical record systems that gather, store, and show patient information. They allow for the creation of readable and well-organized records as well as access to clinical information about specific patients. Furthermore, EMR software is designed to replace current (typically paper-based) medical records that practitioners are already familiar with. For centuries, patient records have been maintained on paper, using growing amounts of space and significantly delaying access to effective medical care. EMRs, on the other hand, record individual patient clinical information electronically and make it instantly available to all physicians in the healthcare chain, assisting in the delivery of coherent and consistent care.
Advantages of EMR:
For clinic:
Save space: Clinics save space by not having to maintain, handle, or retrieve paper records.
Optimize Workflows: EMRs aid in the optimization of workflows, the tracking of patients, and the management of patients who visit a medical facility.
Interoperability: Clinics can communicate with labs, pharmacies, hospitals, as well as state and national health systems. Patient data available on the data systems of other EMRs can also be viewed by practitioners.
Lower operational costs: The operational cost reduces significantly thanks to the cloud-based nature of EMRs/EHRs.
Customizable and scalable: The patient records and charts can be scaled and customized as per needs.
Research: Users can monitor patients for better treatment quality by digitizing patient records, which helps with research.
Better employee networking: Staff, hospitals and clinics can interact with each other and the EMR/EHR keeps a track of it.
Reminders and suggestions: Patients are reminded about the upcoming appointments, refills, or reorders for medications, and suggestions for treatments and lab tests necessary to stay healthy and keep a check on one’s health.
For patients:
Reduced human errors as compared to manual record-keeping.
Faster and more efficient care.
The medical progress is trackable through data.
Diagnoses and care by the provider improve thanks to the efficiency and shared information.
Patient history is secure and backed up in the cloud system which makes it disaster-proof.
Patient history is private and protected.
Data-backed decisions increase the effectiveness of care.
