There are lots of use cases for blockchain technology in the Healthcare industry.
Someone recently asked our expert – why use blockchain for EHR/EMR?
What’s the difference between EHR and EMR?
There is a difference between EHR (Electronic Health Records) and EMR (Electronic Medical Records).
- EHR is a collection of all the patient health data, usually over time and from multiple sources.
- EMR’s are similar to a patient’s chart, and each doctor visit and procedure usually generates a new EMR.
How does blockchain make an EMR system stronger?
