  • Electronic Health Records(EHRs) software is used by physicians or clinicians to collect and manage their patient's data. It stores all details of patient's medical records like diagnosis, demographics, vitals, allergies, radiology images, immunization dates, laboratory reports, insurance and claims details, televisits details etc.



    Electronic Health Record software is mainly divided into three categories; if you are curious about these categories, Read further for that:


    1. Physician-hosted System:

    If you are a physician and want to use a physician-hosted system, you have to store all your patients' data in your System's server. You have to purchase hardware and software for that, and you are also responsible for maintaining your server's data. In addition, you have to keep your patient's data private and secure from any stealing or harm.


    2. Remotely-hosted System:

    A remotely-hosted System is a system where you have to store all your data on another entity's server. That another entity is responsible for storing your data and maintaining data, keeping your data private and secure, or also responsible for backing your data. So, you don't have to worry about storing data on your server.


    3. Remote System:

    Remote System is divided into three categories, and the following are the list of these categories:


    Subsidized:

    A subsidized system is one in which another organization sponsors the cost of an EHR. In most cases, a physician establishes this partnership with a hospital, owning the data.


    Dedicated:

    In a dedicated system, physicians store their data on their provider's server, and these servers are located in different areas worldwide. So, Physicians can't control their data storage or most functions.


    Cloud:

    Most of the EHR software is a cloud-based system. As a result, physicians don't have to store data on their server, but providers store data "in the cloud." This means that physicians don't have to worry about their data because it is stored in a secure location and can access their data on the internet through providers' websites.
