EHRs are patient medical records that have been converted into digital documents. All aspects of patient care such as medical history, treatment plans, medications, test results and other clinical data are updated and accessed in real time. Ideally, this allows for the complete and accurate delivery of patient information, which contributes to quality of care. 

Widespread adoption of EHRs can produce numerous benefits for SNFs, including:

• Interoperability with other systems for optimized transitions of care 
• Reduction in hospital readmissions
• Effective management of medications
• Ability to view and update health records at the point of care
• Enhanced patient outcomes

Realizing all the benefits of an EHR system depends upon careful planning and successful implementation. If your SNF is in need of a new EHR solution, download this e-book to learn more.
