The charts

appear to be a hive of nonnotable websites trying to promote themselves. Does anybody agree with me that the charts should be removed? ThemFromSpace 17:13, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could we add a link to Microchip implant (human)? Stars4change (talk) 05:54, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And say that's the future of every person's medical history, which gets lost from changing doctors often. No one knows what shots they had from birth but the chip implant will make it easy to know that info for a lifetime. It can also eliminate paper and save forests.

Merger attempts 2009?

Please don't just redirect, but start a discussion if you think this article should be merged with EHR. Thanks Mootros (talk) 19:31, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking about it, but when I read what was left, I didn't see anything, with the possible exception of the protocol list, that wasn't already there. I've commented at WT:WikiProject Medicine to try to get more input on the topic.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:38, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I think they are two distinct topics. But lets see what input we get.Mootros (talk) 19:50, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with merging. I'm in the medical field though not IT, and I don't consider them different. So I doubt the average reader will; they will only be confused and scattered to and fro. If the articles' information is really redundant, then that's more reason to merge. - Draeco (talk) 23:39, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think I have said this before but point it out again (and I am an IT professional rather than health). An EHR is the idea of a record containing health information. That includes but is not limited to medical information. EMR implies only information relevant to medicine which is more restrictive. But still, the difference basically a minor point of language. I'd support the merging of the two articles because, for the lay person (and increasingly the expert) they are one and the same. Donama (talk) 01:06, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I agree too. (130.37.60.174 (talk) 16:39, 17 November 2009 (UTC) Joris)[reply]

KnowESys Hi I am new to editing Wikipedia but I do know that these are two different topics and have added a paragraph to the page that explains the difference. I have a pdf on the topic but don't know how to attach it to my reference. Help would be appreciated. —Preceding undated comment added 14:20, 23 January 2010 (UTC).

--KnowESys (talk) 14:14, 23 January 2010 (UTC)Many people in the US healthcare industry, our government, and the press use the terms electronic medical record (EMR) and electronic health record (EHR) interchangeably. However, these terms describe completely different concepts, both of which are crucial to the success of local, regional, and national goals to improve patient safety, improve the quality and efficiency of patient care, and reduce healthcare delivery costs. EHRs are reliant on EMRs being in place, and EMRs will never reach their full potential without interoperable EHRs in place. It s important to understand the differences, and to reduce confusion in the market.[1][reply]
