| dc.description.abstract | Abstract: The need for an Electronic Medical
Record(EMR) system has grown
exponentially with the vast increase in
population, where it is strenuous to deal with
patients’ medical records physically. EMR
grants the electronic entry, upkeep and
perpetuation of medical information of
patients over long periods which in turn
provides quality care and safety in healthcare
organizations. Nevertheless, EMRs have been
a huge leap in the medical field, where
hospital records are computerized for the
betterment of patient care. In fact, EMRs are
ought to reduce the manual work done and
upgrade the efficiency in healthcare systems.
This paper focuses on the significance of
EMRs in healthcare organizations with the
help of a review on the researches done on
EMR systems and a comparison done
between the EMR systems which have been
implemented so far. Also through this, it is
aimed to identify the insights along with the
features and functionalities to be included
when implementing a quality and an
innovative EMR by bridging the gap in the
knowledge for improving EMRs in the
healthcare sector. | en_US |
