Accessing Your Health Records online

Before the dawn of digital medical technology, maintaining and updating patient records was one of the main responsibilities of the hospitals usually aligned with the Medical Records Department. Understanding doctor’s handwriting was the number one issue. With the rapid advancement of digital technology and its encouragement for users to adapt and evolve, patients are being encouraged by their doctors to make use of cloud based digital health platforms. One of the important benefits to be derived from medical software is the accessibility of your personal health records at the touch of your fingertips. 

Patient records are now being digitised and presented in a more discernible form. These are called electronic patient records (EPR) and these include the ability of scanning the actual files and saving a copy to the digitized patient’s records. Using two factor authentication and password protection, only authorised persons can retrieve and view a specific medical file. Patients are encouraged to participate in their own personal medical record management by enquiring and referring to the medical record updates on their profiles. 

Below are some of the benefits of accessing your health records online. 

1. You can access your health record from any location, at any time. 
2. Accessing the apps and portal takes very little time. 
3. There is no need to go to the doctor’s office as much as before. 
4. Digitising means your records are neatly stored. No more papers to file thus contributing to the paperless environment. 
5. Your private and confidential information is well protected with built-in security systems. 
6. Reading and understanding your health information is much easier. 
7. You can take a more constructive part in your own personal healthcare programme. 
8. Referrals to other doctors or clinics are much easier to facilitate. 
9. Patients can voice their opinions by giving honest feedback of their experience with the doctors or hospitals. 

Accessing your health records has never been easier. All you need to know about yourself is in one place and just a click away. The world of digitisation has provided not only more entertainment, but in the medical realm, better healthcare services.
