Patient Health Data and Electronic Records

Briefly compare and contrast EHRs, EMRs, and PHRs. Include the typical content and functionality of each.

Focusing on one of these types of records, describe the key benefits for one of the stakeholders (e.g., patients, providers, or health care management) of being able to record and/or access patient data through this system.

Should all patient health information be recorded electronically? If so, explain why. If not, explain what the exceptions should be and why.
