Full Title

Electronic Health Records (EHR) aka Electronic Medical Records (EMR).

Context

Records that contain Patient Health Information PHI.

Problems

  • Not all information in the record is valid but entered just to assure that the payment for services will be rendered, or because it is easier to cut and paste or blindly click "OK".[1]
