Although the terms "EHR" [electronic health record] and "EMR" [electronic medical record] are often used interchangeably, there is a difference between them ... The EMR is the legal patient record that is created in hospitals and ambulatory environments and is the data source for the EHR. The EHR is the system that gives patients, physicians and other health care providers, employers, and payers or insurers access to a patient's medical record across facilities. 4, record 1, English, - electronic%20medical%20record

Ne pas confondre «dossier médical électronique» avec «dossier de santé électronique» : le premier consiste habituellement en une version électronique du dossier papier où les médecins consignent de longue date l'information sur leurs patients (le DME peut être un simple système limité au cabinet du médecin ou un système plus élaboré et en réseau), alors que le second est une compilation de principaux renseignements provenant de multiples sources et peut être composé de divers dossiers électroniques fournis par divers fournisseurs dans chaque province ou territoire. 4, record 1, French, - dossier%20m%C3%A9dical%20%C3%A9lectronique
