Identify the primary differences between an electronic medical record (EMR), electronic health record (EHR), and a personal health record (PHR). 2. What are the primary technical and design complexity issues with delivering these EHR eight core functions? Choose 1 issue and identify how you would address it. 3. How does the integration that is required between the EHR and other middleware products vary depending on whether one is running locally, on an office-based LAN, or online within an ASP model?
