The computerization of patient records is viewed not only as a factor in making real-time patient care easier, but also as an aid in measuring quality performance. In the eyes of some, the computerization of patient records, ultimately leading to the establishment of the electronic health record (EHR) as industry standard, has the potential of dramatically improving the delivery of health care services. Taking the steps toward the EHR can require a great commitment of resources on the part of the health care enterprise.
患者记录的计算机化不仅被视为使实时患者护理更便捷的一个因素，还被看作是衡量质量绩效的一种辅助手段。在一些人看来，患者记录的计算机化最终会促成电子健康记录（EHR）成为行业标准，这有可能极大地改善医疗服务的提供。朝着电子健康记录迈进可能需要医疗企业投入大量资源。
