What is the primary difference between electronic medical records (EMRs) and electronic health records (EHRs)?

An EMR is a digital version of a patient’s chart used within one medical practice or organization. An EHR is designed to provide a broader view of a patient’s health and can be shared across different practices and care settings. Therefore, the correct choice is “EMRs are used within a practice, but EHRs can be shared among medical practices.”
