EMR
Clinic's patient database
EMR stands for electronic medical record—a digital version of a patient's chart containing medical history, diagnoses, medications, and treatment plans.
EMRs replaced paper files in most healthcare settings: The doctor pulled up my EMR to check my lab results.
In other contexts, EMR may refer to electromagnetic radiation or emergency medical responder.
