The adoption of EHR (Electronic Health Records) worldwide is not a new happening. The cost containment on healthcare and safety of the patient has been the driving force behind the worldwide growth of the EMR market. The worldwide market for EMR is expected to rise from $4,355 millions in 2009 to $9,957 millions in 2015. The commendation for this rising course goes not only to the WHO emphasis on information and government initiatives but also to the healthcare organization, who believe in the notion of the safety of the patients and increasing the patient involvement in the process.
