EMR is use for patient registering, error reduction, administrative cost savings, increased productivity, and improved patient satisfaction, yet widespread adoption has been slow However, many barriers to the successful implementation of EMR systems continue to limit the uptake, including the lack of organizations culture, lack of incentives to the users and lack of vender support .Currently exists in terms of where users are and where they need to be in order to implement an EMR system.
