Electronic Medical Record (EMR)

An Electronic Medical Record (EMR) is a digital version of a patient’s paper chart. EMR’s are real-time, patient-centered records that make information available instantly and securely to authorized users. While an EMR does contain the medical and treatment histories of patients, an EMR system is built to go beyond standard clinical data collected in a provider’s office.

EMRs contain a patient’s medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, immunization dates, allergies, radiology images, and laboratory and test results.

EMRs allow access to lab and radiology reports that providers can use to make decisions about a patient’s care.
