Improved patient care is another upshot. “With an EMR system, doctors have access to patient information anywhere there is an Internet connection. In some practices where there are multiple locations, physicians are actually packing patient charts into locked suitcases and rolling them out to locations where they will be seeing patients that day,” continued Burns. “EMR is not only more convenient and secure, it also allows access to patient information from physicians’ homes, so in the event of an emergency, they can call into the ER with instruction on what to do and not do.”
