EHRs are patient-centered, real-time records that make information available to authorized users quickly and securely. While an EHR system does contain a patient's medical and treatment history, it is designed to go beyond traditional clinical data collected in a provider's office to provide a more comprehensive perspective of a patient's care.

The measures of Latin American governments to encourage the use of healthcare IT is expected to showcase a favorable impact on the market growth. In the Latin American EHR market, the rise in the geriatric population, R&D in cloud storage technology, and an increase in the number of EHR service providers are expected to contribute to the growth of the EHR market in Latin America.  Furthermore, due to increasing digitalization, there has been a constant increase in demand for electronic health records, supporting market expansion. Moreover, the market for electronic health records is expected to grow as the need for centralizing and streamlining healthcare administration grows.

Compared to small-scale ambulatory care centers, large-scale ambulatory care centers have higher adoption of electronic health records. Because the cost of installing electronic health records is higher in ambulatory care centers, and large-scale centers have easier access to money, they can also handle productivity, which is one of the primary restraints to the EHR market in the Latin American region. The lockdown has had a detrimental influence on key market competitors’ revenue since confident client purchasing choices and projects have been postponed to focus on treating patients, procuring crucial medical supplies, and managing their organizations during this crisis.
