A recent survey of clinicians pointed to Electronic Health Records (EHR) technology as the second most common reason for clinician burnout.
A digital version of a client’s health record, EHR was introduced in order to drive advancements in client care, increase efficiencies, make payments easier, and improve reporting and collaboration of care. In an ideal world, it should be a central location for all of a client’s important information, in order for the behavioral health and medical communities to provide the best care possible. Because information can be shared across various care settings, EHRs can contribute to complete and comprehensive care for all clients.
