Answer to Question 1

In a computerized office, the information that was gathered and entered onto a patient information form will then be entered into a computer into an electronic medical record (EMR). This will form the patient's medical record. Encouraged by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the federal government, the EMR is very gradually replacing the paper record. The federal government has set a goal of 2014 for universal adoption of electronic records and e-prescribing. The EMR may be stored in a hospital's private network, or it may be kept on the Internet.
Software has been developed that makes it possible to store medical information on cell phones, smartphones, and tablet computers. The records include prescribed medications, insurance, and names of doctors among other relevant data. The records also contain digital photo identification.
