EHR & EMR Software Development

Lightpoint team develops Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems that streamline patient data processing, enhance clinical workflows, and elevate the standard of care.

For EHR and EMR development we use cutting-edge technologies and our healthcare domain knowledge to provide our customers with custom solutions that are adapted to their specific challenges and goals.

EHR & EMR Software Development Services

The main difference between EMRs and EHRs is that the EMR system focuses on the patient’s history within a single healthcare provider, while the EHR system integrates health information from various providers.

We provide both EMR and EHR software development from the ground up.

Electronic Medical Record (EMR) development

An EMR is a digital version of a patient's paper chart whichcontains medical and treatment history in a specific healthcare institution. It is designed to streamline management of patient data and clinical workflows within a specific practice.

Electronic Health Record (EHR) development

An EHR offers a more holistic view of a patient's health, combining data from various sources, such as hospitals, clinics, laboratories, pharmacies, etc. It is interconnected and accessible across the healthcare system enabling healthcare professionals to provide coordinated care.

EMR/EHR Features to improve your processes

When developing EMR/EHR with the Lightpoint team, you can define a unique set of features that your future system will possess to cater to your needs and requirements.

The challenges in EMR/EHR system development that we can solve

At Lightpoint we develop EMR and EHR systems that can solve several problems in healthcare organizations, leading to improved patient care, operational efficiency, and data management. Below you can see some of the key issues we help to solve.

Inefficient Data Management

EMR and EHR systems we create help to replace manual, paper-based record-keeping with digital and organized data management, reducing paperwork, data duplication, and administrative burdens.

Fragmented Patient Information

EMR and EHR systems we develop centralize patient data, allowing healthcare providers to access comprehensive medical histories and treatment records across different care settings, leading to better-informed decision-making.

Medical Errors and Adverse Events

We help in developing tools that can alert healthcare providers about potential drug interactions, allergies, and treatment guidelines, reducing medical errors and improving patient safety.

Lack of Care Coordination

We facilitate seamless communication and data exchange among healthcare professionals, improving care coordination and ensuring a cohesive approach to patient care.

Poor Billing and Revenue Management

While integrating EHR systems with billing systems we help streamlining the billing process, reducing errors in medical coding and enhancing revenue cycle management.

Data Security and Privacy Concerns

We implement robust security measures, such as encryption and access controls, to protect patient data from unauthorized access and breaches, addressing data security and privacy concerns.

Limited Patient Engagement

While integrating EHR systems with patient portals we enable your patients to access their medical information, communicate with healthcare providers, and participate more actively in managing their health, fostering better patient engagement.

Inadequate Reporting and Analytics

We develop data analytics and reporting tools to help healthcare organizations identify trends, assess performance, and make data-driven decisions for improving patient outcomes and operational efficiency.

Non-compliance with Regulatory Requirements

We design EMR and EHR systems to meet industry standards and data privacy regulations, helping healthcare organizations maintain compliance with laws like HIPAA or GDPR.

Lack of Interoperability

We create EHR systems with interoperability capabilities to allow seamless data exchange between different healthcare providers and systems, promoting better care coordination and reducing fragmented patient information.

End-to-end Custom EHR Software Development Process

We are responsible for the whole process of EHR and EMR software development. Though the stages of that process can vary depending on the customer project requirements and methodologies used, here is a generalized overview of EHR/EMR solution development:

Planning and Requirement Gathering:

Identifying the project scope and requirements, defining the features the EHR/EMR system should have.

Design:

Development of an intuitive and user-friendly UI design, planning the database structure and data flow to ensure data integrity and security.

Development:

Building the EHR/EMR software according to the design specifications, integration with other systems (e.g., laboratory, imaging, billing systems).

Testing:

Performing testing to fix bugs and errors as well as verify that the system meets all the required specifications and regulatory standards.

Deployment:

Ensuring a smooth transition from the existing paper-based or legacy systems to the new EHR/EMR software, training users (healthcare professionals, administrators, etc.) on how to use the system effectively

Go-Live and Support:

Launching the EHR/EMR system for real-world use, addressing any post-launch issues to keep the system running smoothly and up-to-date.

Optimization and Enhancements:

Gathering feedback from users and stakeholders to identify areas of improvement, introducing new features and enhancements to adapt to evolving healthcare practices.
