According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 86.9% of US-based office physicians are using electronic medical record (EMR) systems to track their patients' health information. However, an important factor isn't just using an EMR system; it's how to choose the right one.

Many healthcare organizations have digitized their processes, which include using electronic health records (EHRs). EHRs help improve the accuracy and accessibility of patient information. If you're wondering whether transitioning from paper to digital records is worth it for your firm, here's what you should consider.

But while EHR systems offer better data management and security, they also come with certain inconveniences and inefficiencies.
