The fact that doctors need to double their efforts by manually transcribing information from EMRs to paper and then scanning it back into the system is not only time-consuming but also prone to errors. This defeats the purpose of using an electronic system. But, in Myanmar, EMRs are a fragmented network in the private healthcare system, where there’s no connection between different hospitals, which has led to patients having multiple digital IDs across various facilities. This hampers the seamless exchange of patient information and continuity of care.
