Electronic health/medical/patient records. The terminology varies by jurisdiction, but the goals of this essential clinical technology are similar: improving patient access to health and services, enhancing care quality and safety, streamlining clinical workflow and team-based collaboration, and helping healthcare systems and organizations to modernize the way they operate.

Electronic health record (EHR) implementations are complex and expensive undertakings for any system or organization, requiring significant effort along the entire end-to-end journey from strategic planning and investment case development, procurement, implementation, and supporting adoption and, finally, optimization to help derive value and realize benefits.
