Electronic Health Records
Reshaping the risk paradigm
Using electronic health records to facilitate superior risk assessment
Market growth and customer expectations continue to drive the need for faster decision-making throughout the insurance industry. Insurers can begin to address this need by replacing high-cost data sources such as blood and urine samples and attending physician statements (APS) with newer, lower-cost sources such as electronic health records (EHRs).
An EHR is a real-time, patient-centered record available quickly and securely to authorized users and designed to improve information sharing between medical providers. Simply put, an electronic health record is a digital version of a patient’s paper records. EHRs are positioned to create widespread value across the insurance industry by helping to facilitate superior risk assessment.
