This presentation touches on five security features your EHR has that make IT security a little bit easier.

2. EHR SECURITY FEATURES
Role-based
access
• Set permissions for individuals or for groups of individuals to make sure staff
only have access to the information they need. For example, administrative staff
most often only need access to basic information such as patient
name, address, date of birth, and other demographics.
Audit trails
• Your EHR should track most activities within your EHR including logging on or off
the system, opening, modifying, creating, or deleting a record, scheduling a
patient, signing a chart, performing a query within the system, or printing
personal health information. No one should be able to delete audit trails.

• Your EHR should require a password to access the system and should automatically log staff
out of the system after a set amount of inactivity. A a password should be required should be
required to log back in and the account should lock after so many wrong password guesses.
• Your EHR should encrypt patient data to protect it in case of theft or interception.
• Your EHR should allow you to store, display, and print patient consent forms.
