Over the last decade, Multi location Hospitals have sensed a need for digital storage of patient data because physical files are difficult to store and share with their counterparts in another city or even country.
This need is addressed with Electronic Medical Records (EMR). EMR is widely used to store a whole range of data such as demographics, medical history, medication and allergies, immunization status, laboratory test results, radiology images, vital signs, personal stats like age and weight, and billing information. It allows automation, streamlining of the workflow in health care settings and increases safety through evidence-based decision support, quality management and outcome reporting.
Over the recent years EMR has evolved into sophistication as fast the healthcare industry. Now we have specialty specific EMR such as PARAS specialty specific clinical module that can be used by individual departments or specialty hospitals like Center for Sight, Narayan Netralaya, Zydus Group of hospitals to store patient data. This EMR is then integrated with the general EMR of the patient, their laboratory test results, digital images, medicine history to produce all inclusive health report of patients that can be stored by hospitals.
Some of the clinical specialty modules available with PARAS:
-
Ophthalmology.
-
Cardiology.
-
OB/GYN.

Multi-Specialty (Internal Medicine).
