Survey: Improved Access to Charts Greatest Benefit of EMRs

A survey by Software Advice found that healthcare providers cited greater accessibility to charts as the number one benefit of electronic medical records, according to a Software Advice report.

Fifty providers participated in the survey, which was designed to determine the top benefits of EMR software. The second highest-rated benefit was greater legibility of notes. The third top benefit was a tie between more accurate and up-to-date patient information and improved coordination of treatment by more than one healthcare provider.
