Electronic Health Record Comic



I found this comic while i was online and it's a comic about why you should have Electronic Health Records (EHR). The comic shows a woman pointing out why these EHR's are so important. The lady is shown saying that the EHR's will save your life.

I don't think this comic is very persuasive because it looks very boring and not professionally done. They try and put emphasis in emergencies by putting and erupting volcano in the background and in another panel they talk about saving lives and in the background, the scene is suppose to be peaceful and safe because it is a picture of a mountain with the sun behind it.

The Conversation here is that EHR's are a good thing and that they will be the key to saving your life. The comic says that the new EHR's are a new important factor in our lives and that making the right choice to use them will save our lives in unknown emergencies here ate home or overseas.

In the end the comic fails to express how important these EHR's will be now only to us but the way medical offices will function. Physicians should not take this comic seriously and feel that EHR's will not be something that should be used well.
