El Salvador accepts Electronic Health Record (EHR), seeking to benefit society and its health

It is expected that, with the conjunction between the public and private sectors, this tool can cover the entire country. For now, the EHR has allowed a more dynamic workflow for both the doctor and the patient himself.

El Salvador recounted the situations that occurred with the EHR within the Single Health Information System (SUIS).

The main consideration was the acceptance of people to the system and, with it, their appropriation to generate a good environment that is coupled to the management processes both by the doctor and the interaction with the patient.

The treatment that the population has coined contributes to a considerable flow where the context in which the Salvadoran health service lives adapts to the functioning of the Single File, which synchronizes data and cross-references in order to support and relate the information stored in the cloud.

With this, the user can identify himself before any institution since the necessary data will be available at any time and in any place; This reduces costs and the digital divide, since the National Health Service It will have, as an agreement, a file that supports the files of each individual.

The reality that has been presented to date indicates that there is still a need to cover the clinical history in all medical care centers through highly specialized connectivity that allows appointments to be distributed and clinical follow-up capable of covering all regions without setbacks.

Also, the equipment in the laboratories was automated in order to monitor the methods used in the treatments and other facilities such as carrying out studies or analyzes and being able to control the supply of medication, taking into account its logistical distribution.

One of the advantages of the new software is that, being free, it is available to the public to be modified for its maximum use, since, by being able to manipulate resources, it will be possible to update the priorities of computerization and other relevant public policies.

By not replacing itself but reinventing itself, the free software modality can last for a long period of time without becoming obsolete. To this extent, the configurations are maintained and, in addition, it allows adapting new tools over the existing ones and saving unnecessary investments or those that affect the economy of the institutions.

Ese es el desafío que se abalanza sobre la digital health en América Latina, complementar y aunar entre sí al sector privado con el público adaptando las necesidades de cada uno en un solo patrón. Se podrá hablar, entonces, de un financiamiento enfatizado en aumentar las políticas públicas con el afán de aportar a las telecomunicaciones y su red de conexión.

The Electronic Medical Record on the part of El Salvador leaves a profound reflection on a legal framework suitable for being a good support in health centers. A regulation is required to regulate clinical and administrative processes based on the legalization of digital methods to be considered as evidence or official documents.
