What is an Electronic Medical Record?
An electronic medical record (EMR) is a computerized, digital record of a patient's
medical care. It provides a single, shareable, up-to-date, accurate, rapidly retrievable source
of information, potentially available anywhere at any time. This record is stored in a
centralized system with security safeguards and multiple data backups.
