Measure Electronic Medical Records

Electronic health record (EHR) is a representation of patient history that would actually find in the conventional paper based records. Generally, It refers to the combination of the medical record created by the medical care system and personal health information. The Electronic health record is designed to capture and re-present data that capture the state of the patient at all times. Because these records are interoperable so it can be accessed across networks by computers at any authorized point of care. It allows to view entire patient history without the need to track down the patient’s past medical record. It assists in ensuring patient data is accurate, appropriate and legible. It reduces data replication because patient data will be always up to date when viewed at a later date and also eliminates the issue of lost paper based records.

The potential value of health records data to clinical research could be overdraw by the computing power associated with electronic medical records. The application of Health IT offers the promise of extracting patient records including physical examination, medical history, diagnostic test, diagnoses, radiology images, billing data, clinical information, and post treatment instructions. A fully functional Electronic healthcare information system enables physicians to contact patients directly, to induce patient feedback related to specific conditions, and to provide actionable feedback.
