Electronic Medical Records are the digital means of storing patient’s information. The days of the good, old paper charts are numbered and are coming to an end rapidly. The insurance companies, Medicare, governmental agencies (through the HIPPA Compliance Act) are forcing more and more physicians into accepting Electronic Medical Records as the primary means of documentation and information storage. Digital information is stored and backed up on the physical servers and the “cloud” storage facilities. Patient’s data is essentially becoming eternal without the time decay and paper chart degradation.
Long gone are the days of the physician’s staff running around looking for that one “lost chart” that was misplaced and is in some huge pile somewhere, while the patient is sitting in the room ready to be seen. The physician no longer has to tell the patient that his chart is lost and no one knows where it is. And frequently, those charts contained many years’ worth of medical studies and documentation and were simply irreplaceable. Patients that want to be seen at our pain clinic Knoxville TN area office can rest assure that Omega Pain Management Clinic is fully HIPPA compliant and your information is safe with us, digitally safe.want Electronic Medical Records are the digital means of storing patient’s information.
