Electronic medical records are very valuable. In order for a doctor to search a patients medical history, they always need their previous medical documents. Electronic medical records come in place just in case a patient has lost or misplaced their medical records. In my opinion, this is a very valuble piece in the medical field and has contributed to alot successful surgeries and patient recoveries
Many times patients do forget what surgeries that they had do and what medications the doctor had prescribed to them during that time. The EMR would useful for doctors and patients in order help the patient's medical history in order.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Especially for patients who forget easily and take a lot of medications.
