Rate of error in records 35.9%. Type of error is missing test name 17.9%. There are no cases of wrong type or dose of medicine. Rate of satisfaction is 84.6%. ISS > 25 is 35.9%. Results reached 76.9%, cardiovascular group 64.7%, thoracic group 72.7%.


Conclusion: Electronic medical records are one of the important areas in applying digital technology to the Vietnamese healthcare system. EMR at Thong Nhat Hospital has shown promising initial results. Integrating artificial intelligence in EMR is of interest to the government and is an inevitable trend.
