As the health services and care industry continues to evolve rapidly, the integration of Electronic Health Records (EHR) and the utilization of Telemedicine services have become more critical than ever before. In fact, studies have shown that the adoption of EHR has increased from 9.4% in 2008 to 84.5% in 2015 among office-based physicians in the US alone. This highlights the importance of EHR and Telemedicine services in providing efficient and effective healthcare to patients worldwide.

The onset of the digital age has revolutionized the way healthcare organizations operate and deliver patient care. With the advancement of electronic health records (EHRs), telemedicine, and mobile health applications, healthcare providers now have access to a ginormous amount of patient data, enabling them to make more informed diagnoses and treatment decisions. 

Moreover, digital technologies have facilitated the sharing of patient information among different healthcare providers, leading to better health outcomes. Overall, the digital age has transformed the healthcare industry, paving the way for more personalized, efficient, and effective patient care. 

In this article, we will shed light on the significance of integrated EHR, patient care in the digital age, and the pivotal role of cloud-based EHR and Telemedicine in ensuring that healthcare remains accessible and efficient.

The Impact of COVID-19 on Healthcare

According to a study by the American Medical Association, telemedicine visits increased by 50% in the United States during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

This demonstrates the growing recognition of telemedicine as an effective tool for delivering healthcare services remotely while maintaining social distancing. Furthermore, a recent report by Grand View Research projects that the global telemedicine market size is expected to reach  USD 380.3 billion by 2030, driven by the unprecedented and increasing demand for remote healthcare services.  These staggering figures highlight the crucial role that telemedicine software is playing in transforming the healthcare industry during these unprecedented times.
