What is EMR software?
EMR (electronic medical records) software replaces paper case files with a digital patient record. It stores consultation notes, diagnoses, prescriptions, vitals, allergies, lab and imaging reports and documents in one place, so any authorised doctor can see a patient's complete history and write the next visit without searching files.

Why clinics switch from paper files to an EMR
A paper file can only be in one place, is hard to read and is easy to lose. An EMR gives the doctor the whole history before the patient sits down, makes prescriptions legible and safer with drug checks, and lets the lab, pharmacy and billing work from the same record instead of re-writing it.
