EHR Software Features
EHR features address a wide range of needs of a healthcare organization. Here are some of the most popular ones.
Patient Management
EHR patient management features optimize the storage and sharing of patient information. This improves care coordination and helps healthcare organizations more efficiently manage patient medical and social histories, treatments, and prescriptions.
Clinical Documentation
Documentation features of EHR systems allow healthcare professionals to accurately capture and manage clinical progress notes, assessments, diagnoses, lab test results, and treatment records, ultimately leading to improved care quality.
Financial Management
EHR software can help streamline healthcare organizations’ financial management, handling core tasks like invoicing, billing, insurance claim processing, and financial reporting to ensure more efficient budget management and transparency.
Appointment Management
Appointment management features automate clinical appointment scheduling and confirmation processes. This includes sending patient reminders and handling cancellations through user-friendly portals, which reduces no-shows and maximizes clinical efficiency.
Telehealth Video & Messaging
The telehealth features we create provide HIPAA and FHIR-compliant video and messaging functionality for patients and clinicians. Plus, they don’t require any third-party account setup to use.
Analytics & Reporting
EHR reporting features allow healthcare organizations to gain in-depth insights into their processes and performance, which facilitates informed decision-making and drives organizational improvements that enhance patient care and overall operational efficiency.
ePrescriptions (eRx)
eRx features can be implemented to automate the handling of prescriptions, addressing common issues like out-of-stock medications, closed pharmacies, and long wait times without requiring clinician involvement.
Insurance Validation & Claims Submission
Implementing claims submission features automates insurance claim validation and submission to any payer, eliminating the need for external accounts and streamlining complex, time-consuming claims processing tasks for healthcare organizations.

EHR Software Development FAQs
Explore our answers to some EHR software development FAQs to help you choose an EHR development company to partner with.
What are essential features of EHR software?
Essential features of EHR software include tools for patient management, clinical documentation, financial management, appointment management, telehealth and video messaging, analytics and reporting, ePrescriptions (eRx), and insurance validation and claims submission.
How long does it take to develop an EHR system?
How long it takes to build an EHR system completely from scratch depends heavily on the number of components the EHR system consists of, but, on average, such projects can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months. With Oystehr it can sometimes be a bit faster, taking somewhere between 2 and 12 months.
How much does it cost to implement EHR software for a hospital?
The cost of implementing EHR software for a hospital varies based on the hospital's size and the number of selected components to be implemented. After a comprehensive discovery stage, we provide a detailed roadmap with estimates.
To minimize disruption and associated implementation costs, we can always adopt an iterative approach, integrating one component at a time to ensure minimal to no downtime for the hospital's operations.
What is the difference between EHR and EMR?
The main difference between electronic health records (EHR) and electronic medical records (EMR) systems lies in their scope and functionality.
EMRs are essentially digitized versions of paper medical charts that are intended to be used by a single medical practice and not shared outside of that practice.
EHRs encompass a broader view of a patient's health and include information from multiple sources, such as specialists, laboratories, and pharmacies, facilitating coordinated care by allowing various healthcare providers to access and share patient information securely.
Does the EHR system allow the staff to make appointments for patients?
Yes, both self-schedule and staff-schedule features are available for EHR systems.
Can you help us integrate just one part of an EHR system that will operate smoothly with existing software?
Absolutely! Our goal is to make the transition process as smooth as possible, both for patients and medical staff.
Do I need any additional EHR certifications if I partner with you?
Oystehr is a solution that’s compliant with many healthcare industry standards, including FHIR, USCDI, ONC, X12, and HIPAA. We follow these standards in any of the customizations we implement.
What technologies are needed to develop an EHR system?
To develop an electronic health record system, we use several key technologies, but are not limited by them:
- Frontend Development: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and frameworks like React for a responsive interface.
- Backend Development: Languages like Python, Java, or Node.js, with frameworks such as Django or Spring.
- Databases: SQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL) or NoSQL (MongoDB).
- APIs: RESTful APIs and FHIR for data exchange.
- Security: SSL/TLS for encryption, OAuth for authentication.
- Cloud Services: AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
- Compliance: Tools for HIPAA compliance and audit trails.
Is it possible to filter out doctors with state-specific accreditation if we choose your solution for telemedicine?
Yes, we can implement such filters to streamline your telemedicine offerings.
