This document discusses electronic health records (EHRs) and their benefits. It defines an EHR as a digital version of a patient's medical record containing their history from multiple doctors. The benefits of EHRs include improved patient care through better information availability and decision making, increased patient participation through communication, improved care coordination between specialists, improved diagnostics and outcomes through aiding diagnosis and reducing errors, and practice efficiencies and cost savings through automation and more efficient workflows. However, EHR adoption in Indonesia faces challenges related to legal aspects of medical record keeping and interoperability between different healthcare provider systems. Open-source solutions like SIMKES Khanza have been developed to help providers implement EHRs.
