Market Definition
An electronic medical record (EMR) is a digital version of all the information you'd typically find in a provider's paper chart: medical history, diagnoses, medications, immunization dates, allergies, lab results, and doctor's notes. EMRs are online medical records of the standard medical and clinical data from one provider's office, mostly used by providers for diagnosis and treatment. Comprehensive and accurate documentation of a patient's medical history, tests, diagnosis, and treatment in EMRs ensures appropriate care throughout the provider's clinic.
EMRs are more than just a replacement for paper records. They effectively allow communication and coordination among healthcare team members for optimal patient care.
North America Electronic Medical Records (EMR) Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Rising technological advancements
An electronic medical record is a digital representation of a patient's paper-based medical information. The goal of these electronic medical records is to improve the overall quality of care. Clinical, financial, demographic, and coded healthcare data are part of electronic medical records.
Thus, the rising technological advancement in the globe is expected to boost the growth of the North America electronic medical records (EMR) market.
- Low maintenance and wider accessibility
In general, EMR software captures all the data from the point-of-care and documents them, and serves as the best platform to infer whenever required. Health analyses are made to find the best practice method, the process can be altered to improve projects, new practice-level interventions can be created, and informative studies are prepared to assist educational purposes.
The wider use of healthcare information systems and the easier integration and sharing of patient clinical information can facilitate wider access to medical records. EMR can bring several advantages in terms of security solutions as well as improving the correctness and completeness of patient records, which is expected to boost the growth of the North America electronic medical records (EMR) market.
Restraint
- High cost associated with EHR service
The maintenance cost of on-premise solutions and the cost of EHR service is very high, which can hinder market growth in the coming years.
Financial obstacles prevent hospitals and doctors from adopting and implementing an EHR. These obstacles include adoption and implementation expenses, ongoing maintenance costs, revenue loss due to temporary loss of productivity, and revenue decreases. Investing in and setting up hardware and software, converting paper charts to electronic ones, and providing end users with training are all costs associated with adopting and implementing an EHR. Also, hardware must be replaced, and software must be upgraded on a regular basis which may hinder the market growth in the coming years.
Medical staff and providers' workflows are disrupted by EHR, which results in momentary productivity losses. As end users are still getting used to the new system, there will be a decrease in productivity, which could result in revenue losses which can hinder the market growth in the coming years.
Opportunity
- Increased number of medicals & diagnostic centers
A digital version of a chart containing all the patient information stored in a computer is called electronic medical record (EMR). It can be managed and consulted by authorized clinicians and staff within one healthcare organization. The growing demand for healthcare facilities and awareness among people are the key factors in the increased number of medical and diagnostic centers.
Hence, the number of medical and testing laboratories is increasing vastly especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, and the electronic medical record industry is rising together to fulfill the demands in less time and error-free manner. Technological advancement has made the industry grow rapidly in all aspects.
Challenge
- Software incompatibility issues due to varying data standards
EMR software compatibility refers to a single EMR software's ability to communicate and share data with other EMR software and medical systems. The incompatibility issue is not too prevalent within the same organization. But, it becomes a significant stop gap for patient care once help from outside that organization is needed. For instance, incompatibility may arise when a patient is discharged from the hospital, and later, they need to seek out specialized care from a doctor or physical therapist who uses different EMR software.
The software used for EMR are different from organization to organization, and it causes incompatibility issues when the patient's recorded data is shared between them for further care. Hence, it is a major challenge for the EMR market where medical information is very important.
Post-COVID-19 Impact on North America Electronic Medical Records (EMR) Market
Healthcare firms are ramping up efforts for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. However, with the surge in the number of cases, it is challenging for hospitals to manage patient information precisely. Healthcare IT vendors are thriving to provide healthcare organizations with tools to manage a case, analyze the information, as well as assess the patients remotely. In light of this pandemic, electronic heath record/electronic medical record (EHR-EMR) vendors are trying to augment their existing systems for smooth functionality and coping with this crisis.
Manufacturers are making various strategic decisions to bounce back post-COVID-19. The players are conducting multiple R&D activities and product launches, and strategic partnerships to improve the technological advancement in the EMR market.
