Selecting an EHR system – understanding cloud implementations.
As part of the Stage 4 assignment you will propose an appropriate EHR system for the Midtown Family Clinic.

Conduct some research on cloud-based systems or, specifically cloud-based EHR systems, and:
In your own words, explain what a “cloud-based” system is and how it differs from a system implemented on the premise of the using organization
Identify two benefits of using cloud-based systems
Identify two risks or drawbacks of using cloud-based systems
