What is an electronic medical record (EMR)?
An EMR is a digital version of a patient’s paper chart that can be shared by participating doctors, hospitals, and patients. The Epic EMR is a computer system that stores your information in a secure database. Results and notes from a visit to the hospital, physician's office, or outpatient facility are consolidated in one place. That means if you move or are traveling, participating providers can quickly access your medical history, allergies, medications, and test results to deliver the best care possible.
Why did Memorial Health implement Epic?
Epic is the premier, preferred electronic medical record system. It is used by more than 250 healthcare organizations nationwide, including major academic medical centers such as Johns Hopkins Medicine, Cedars-Sinai Health System, and Cleveland Clinic. To date, more than half of all patients in the U.S. have their medical records in an Epic system.
Under the Affordable Care Act, most hospitals in the U.S. are required to have an EMR in place.
How is my privacy protected? Who can access my record?
Your medical information is protected under federal law. Only approved healthcare providers involved in your care can view your record. The EMR is locked until an approved caregiver logs in to the database to access the record. When the caregiver is done, he logs out. For additional safety, the system automatically logs out a caregiver who is not actively using it.
All login activity is recorded, so we know exactly which caregivers view your medical record.
Can I see my medical record?
Yes. Your physician can show you test results and medication records while discussing your care. You can view your information at home by enrolling in MyChart.
