Sample view of an electronic health record. An electronic health record (EHR) also known as an electronic medical record (EMR) or personal health record (PHR) is the systematized collection of patient and population electronically stored health information in a digital format. [1] These records can be shared across different health care settings.
The information contained in the medical record allows health care providers to determine the patient's medical history and provide informed care. The medical record serves as the central repository for planning patient care and documenting communication among patient and health care provider and professionals contributing to the patient's care.
The National Health Service is increasingly using electronic health records, but until recently, the records held by individual NHS organisations, such as General Practitioners, NHS Trusts, dentists and pharmacies, were not linked. Each organization was responsible for the protection of patient data it collected.
