At their core, Electronic Health Records (or EHRs) are digital versions of a patient’s medical chart, supporting care delivery, creating a paper trail of the patient’s treatment, and enabling reimbursement.

For our taxonomy, we’ve taken a straightforward approach–classifying solutions based on whether they cover the primary administrative and clinical functions traditionally associated with EHRs.
