Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

The information on a patient's electronic medical record (EMR) will form the basis of the EHR. Included in this information are patient demographics, progress notes, problems, medications, vital signs, past medical history, immunizations, laboratory data, and radiology reports. The EHR automates and streamlines the clinician's workflow. It has the ability to generate a complete record of a clinical patient encounter as well as support other care-related activities, whether directly or indirectly.
