patient data management

Patient data management involves securely collecting, storing, and organizing a person’s health information—such as medical history, test results, medications, and treatment plans. It ensures healthcare providers have accurate, up-to-date data to make informed decisions. Proper management maintains confidentiality, complies with privacy laws, and enables efficient care delivery. Digital systems like electronic health records (EHRs) help streamline access and sharing of information among authorized medical professionals, ultimately improving patient outcomes and safety.
