Some people may argue that there is a technical distinction between EHR vs. EMR (and I would agree), but I'd say that the phrase "EMR" is dead in today's world of ARRA and HITECH (not to mention Medicare incentives around e-prescribing). Companies that use the phrase "EMR" in their company or product names may wish to rename themselves using EHR instead of EMR.
