Search Results Featured snippet from the web The main difference between EHR and PHR systems is that EHR systems are manged by health care providers and PHR systems are used by the patient. The terms EHR, PHR, and even electronic medical record (EHR), are frequently used interchangeably, but are actually quite different.
EHR is controlled by doctors/physicians, it is also computer generated. PHR is controlled by the patient, but can be generated by almost any medical facility.
