My understanding is if two medical providers use the same EMR, they can both see all of your data. I have an out of state doc who uses EPIC and I needed stitches in my home state. The home state urgent care could see my prescriptions from out of state doc because they both used Epic software.

That's one of the alleged benefits of EMR. Everyone can see all your records. So you don't have to get reports sent between drs or remember your drug names yourself (because patients "never do that").

One thing I have learned multiple doctors and facilities can all see my records, and yet none of them have any of it correct.
Brilliant comment!
That’s true. My chart said Smoking Status unknown. BS, I have never smoked. I asked the nurse to change it.
Yep.
