Abstract

The need of storing the personal health records was felt by the exponential increase in the risk and hazards that can be caused due to negligence and inadequacy in management of these health records especially in developing countries where these records are maintained manually. Electronic Health Records (EHR) plays a vital role in patient care and improving the quality of health services in a region. This paper focuses on the need and applications of the EHR which would help countries like India with a vast population to grow in an environment with good public health care services and management. Thus the structure of EHR would help to achieve an advanced and new medical application to suffice the requirements for a fast, reliable and better medical infrastructure.
