The use of Electronic Health Records (EHR) continues to grow in response to Health IT initiatives. However, many practices struggle to see a resulting increase in quality of care, or worse yet, some are seeing revenues decline following their investment. Though this issue can be complicated, ECM offers a strong starting point to bridge the Health IT technology gap, because it allows practices to quickly and easily access paper-based records from within the EHR.
