I have extensive experience with various EHR systems, including Epic and Cerner. In my previous role, I was responsible for managing patient records, ensuring data accuracy, and facilitating data entry and retrieval. I am proficient in using EHR features such as charting, scheduling, and reporting, which significantly improved record management efficiency and patient care coordination.

I adhere strictly to HIPAA regulations and institutional policies to maintain patient confidentiality. This includes using secure login credentials, encrypting sensitive data, and limiting access to authorized personnel only. I also conduct regular audits of medical records to identify and mitigate any potential security risks, ensuring that patient information is protected at all times.

I employ a systematic approach to manage medical records efficiently. This involves categorizing records by patient, date, and type of service, using both digital and physical filing systems. I also utilize advanced search tools within EHR systems to quickly locate specific records. Regularly updating and purging outdated records helps maintain an organized and manageable database.

When discrepancies or errors are identified, I immediately investigate the source and consult with relevant healthcare providers to verify the correct information. I then update the records accordingly and document the changes. Implementing a double-check system for data entry and regular audits also helps prevent and catch errors early, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of patient records.

In a previous role, I encountered a situation where a patient's critical lab results were misplaced. I quickly initiated a thorough search, coordinated with the lab department, and cross-referenced multiple records. By leveraging EHR search capabilities and collaborating with the team, I successfully located the results and ensured they were promptly incorporated into the patient's medical record, averting potential complications.
