groups, and chart review.
Conclusion
In conclusion, EHRs have many advantages and disadvantages to be weighed before
deciding on one to purchase and implement. Factors such as patient outcomes, patient care and
documentation, privacy, cost, security standards, productivity, and program usability should all
be considered. An EHR implementation team should be formed in order to effectively research
and analyze the EHR for the organization and to help organize the entire process.
