Visual Basic Electronic Medical Record (EMR) for ENT-HNS

[ynnskie2018]

Electronic Medical Record (EMR) also known as Patient Monitoring System is the systematized collection of patient electronically stored health information in a digital format. These records can be shared across different health care settings. Records are shared through network-connected, enterprise-wide information systems or other information networks and exchanges. It may include medical history, medications, examination results, image captures and video recordings.

Today, providers are using data from patient records to improve quality outcomes through their care management programs. Combining multiple types of clinical data from the system's health records has helped clinicians identify and stratify chronically ill patients.

In addition to improving patient outcomes through care management programs, EMRs also offer several other benefits. These include:

1. Improved patient safety: EMRs reduce the risk of errors caused by illegible handwriting or missing information, and allow for alerts and reminders to be set up for clinical decision support.

2. Increased efficiency: EMRs can streamline clinical workflows by reducing the need for paper-based documentation and allowing for easy access to patient information. This can save time and improve staff productivity.

3. Cost savings: EMRs can reduce the need for duplicate testing and imaging, and can help identify and prevent costly medical errors.

4. Enhanced patient engagement: Patients can access their own health information through patient portals, which can improve their understanding of their health conditions and treatment plans.

5. Improved population health management: EMRs can help identify trends and patterns in patient data, which can inform population health management efforts.

Overall, the adoption of EMRs has the potential to transform healthcare delivery by providing more efficient, safe, and coordinated care.
