Clik here to view.What do EMR / EHR have to do with Thanksgiving? Actually, quite a lot. EMRs can make getting sick and landing up in a hospital far from home, at Grandma’s house, a lot less terrible. With well functioning EMRs, if you end up in an emergency room far from home and your doctors over the holidays, your medications and medical history, as well as your insurance information, names and phone numbers of your relatives, etc. can be available to the medical staff who treat you.
