The FreeDOM EMR

FreeDOM is specifically designed to make smaller practices more efficient and more profitable. The FreeDOM EMR was designed to enhance your patient productivity, NOT make you change how you work. This is a key difference of the FreeDOM EMR.

FreeDOM is a complete EMR and PM product. Unlike most competitors, the EMR and PM are not two products that are interfaced; but a single product — same program, same database. This makes FreeDOM faster, easier to support, easier to enhance, easier to learn, and easier to use.

Let us show you some of the EMR highlights below.


During a patient encounter, physician assistants and physicians may open the FreeDOM Flow Sheet (Figure 1 below), which contains access to all of the EMR Editors (data forms). All of the EMR folder tabs are located directly below the Flow Sheet tab.

1. Patient Check-In Editor (Figure 1) - The FreeDOM EMR opens to this editor by default, as it is usually the first area used, generally by a nurse or physician's assistant. In the Check-In Editor, you may record the patient's Chief Complaint, History of Presenting Illness, authorization and referral for the encounter.
